So i picked up this machine, the White Jeans Machine 1099 at a garage sale for like $5. Don't know much about it, but seeing that it was belt driven I figured it would be a nice simple machine. The one 11" belt on it doesn't always catch, so i figured it needed replaced. The new belt is like $13+ shipping. That being said I wanted to see if anyone here had experience with this machine or something similar. I know its only $13 or maybe like $18 with shipping but I would like to avoid needless spending.
Would this machine handle such fabrics as silnylon or m50 etc.. without issue? Is it even worth the effort of fixing or should I just pass it along to someone else…
The machine is from the early 80's.
Thanks!!
