Great video! helped me figure out how to slow mine down with the combination of the servo motor and the pulley system. Did you fab the pulleys or was it that way when you bought it? Looks like about $50-$60 in parts and a day to play around with placement. I would think the motor needs to be moved a bit to keep the second pulley in line with the hand flywheel on the machine.
@raysofgreys Straight stitch = stitch is straight and in line unlike zig zag. lock stitch uses a bobbin unlike chain stitch which does not. chain stitch will run undone if cut. lockstich will not. Chain stitch will stretch with stretchy fabric. lockstitch will not stretch and therefore will snap if stretched. btw. i used to work for pfaff uk
@raysofgreys For dog collars and leashes.. ask for a walking foot machine with a large bobbin size. have it setup with leather point needles. many points are available for different effects. e.g stitches can be set at an angle.
I just got a second hand Pfaff (I think it's 14th hand, actually... looks pretty ancient, but at least you've given me an idea of what I'm getting, since it's the first time I'll be working with an industrial, so... thanks
Looks exactly like my consew I inherited. I just need a servo motor for detail work.

Did you add the pulley system yourself? I have one of these machines and it is too fast. I need a setup like the one you have.

@HungryGuyStories . Wrong. Chain stitch is a popular type of stitch in many garments. T-shirts, Denim Jeans an so on.
