Steve street Posted April 16, 2020 Report Share Posted April 16, 2020 Hi everybody I have just bought this machine in a job lot of shoe related stuff .... I was hoping someone out there can tell me exactly what it is/was used for ? it appears to be something to do with re healing the shoe ? the press wheel at the top screws the foot down and the lever on the side actuates a cam and pushes the ram upwards ! any info much appreciated thank you steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve street Posted April 16, 2020 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2020 Hi thanks for your fast replies .. I will probably convert it into a press for my leather embossing work ! its a really well made thing and it owes next to nothing ,I think it will do the same as the arbor press i was going to buy !
