Like this perhaps, I used to sell them in the 80s & 90s. Very heavy and they can't be put away when you have guests. Also you need to get the engineers to come to the machine and from what I hear (because I get asked to do it all the time) its a trip from Nicosia. However if you can get one cheap out here, it would be a bargain.

I only posted that because many people ask for an industrial when what they really want is a very good quality domestic.
The industrial machine runs on a constant running clutch motor, doing anything from 1500 to 4000 stitches per minute. For those trained in factories it is no problem.

I remember Jill of the curtain workshop had some industrial equipment when she was at Mr Chicken road, perhaps send her a PM?

Hi

That's frightening, so many stitches per second! I have 2 flat stitching machines, a blind hemming machine, a 5 thread overlocker, a button making machine, an eyeletting and 2 domestic and i need them all, the only spare machine that i would like to sell is the one that puts the heading tape on and forms a type of pintuck, i don't like it.

its OK Jill it is per minute not per second :crylaughin It also depends on what work you are doing and the type of industrial. Shirt machines are the fastest at about 4000 a minute. The 20U pictured is nearer 1500 flat out.
