[Grebo]

well ok then....that I will ,,,, I dont know Greg first time here  but it seems he is the almighty so I will take the advice ,,,

Oh geeeezz..... We have been spending months trying to make Greg understand that he is not the almighty and then someone goes and starts it all over again. We will be months trying to shrink his head again.

Just remember Greg we are stitchers and your a machine dealer. That puts you several rungs below us and just a few below lawyers and insurance companies. .......lol............:)

Hi Gregg.

[baileyuph]

Wait a minute guys, the TACSEW industrials have been around longer than I can remember.  Theses machines long ago could be bought from dealers.  Today, they are imported and distributed by the Tacony Corporation, don't know who else might sell them. 

They do sell a large array of industrial equipment and one of their heavy duty walking foot machines is a GC6-6, M bobbin, has a half inch lift, and a long stitch setting of about 3 to an inch.

If anyone wants further information I would suggest google. 

There was a rather large dealer in Texas, not affiliated with Tacony.  More information on Tacsew products go to google and look for it.

Greg is correct there are machines for lighter weight sewing as well.  Their big gear is a knock off of something that looks a lot like Consew. 

The industrial walkers are available new, however.  If it is a Consew rebadged (?) it could be a pretty good machine for marine or?.

I saw my first Tacsew, industrial walking foot over 30 years ago, they had them in long arms and such.

Your right Doyle. It does look like a Consew and they do make bigger machines.
