What big my ignorance that I thougt it sewing like handmade, from up to down and when I've seen the video in the first I thougt was not a outsole :oops: :oops: :lol:

 

Health and thanks another Lee :wink:

 

Edit: In this machine, ¿you don't see the sewing for the other side?

while are stitching.

I want to say that what I thought was you see the intro of the neel for the other side, for the welt. :?:

How you are sure the sewing is good looking for the seen side?

 

I hope you understand me. :roll: :oops: :wink:

how often do you lubricate the rollers in the big cams and what do you use?

I oil them pretty much every week, using a 5W 30 oil, from an oil can.

Experience & a well set up machine. With any piece of stitching, unless using a mirror you can only see on side of your stitching.

That's the best advise Lee. :wink:

This is other good advise :D

 

But in my ignorance, ¿can this machine to sew (stitch) with the shoe in the opposite position?

 

I'm thinking in give the importance to the welt sew, not to the sole. (Ever you can put a sole guard or make an ¿channel lip? Sorry, I don't know exactly the word).

 

Health and thanks Lee :D

No because the upper would foul with the shuttle & Bobbin housing. the shoe has to be in the upside down position.

I have stitched some very thick leather strapping once, but it made me sweat a bit!

No Problem Corlas, quite enjoyed doing it & as a direct result of this exercise a problem with my machine that has been on-going has "hopefully" (all will be revealed in a day or so) been resolved following a chance phone call with Keith from Standard engineering yesterday backed up with some very prompt service in the way of a visit today! so I'm glade you asked!

frobana (aka rafflenbaul)

 

slow, inaccurate, makes own groove. Good when working well.

 

A Frobana is another machine as the Rafflenbeul! They both stiching the shoe in the same position but the Rafflenbeul is much better!

You can't compare it with a Frobana! [-X

 

The Rafflenbeul uses a hard "needle" to first make a hole. Just like the machine Lee uses! (When I have seen it right!)

It's a shame they doesn't make this machine anymore! :cry: I think they are out of production for over 40 years! But they are still working! \:D/

When you look around maybe you can find one!

 

I will try to make some pictures today, so you can see it!

 

Cheers,
