Cutter Grinder
Does anyone have a Merrow Cutter Grinder for sale. It would help me complete my collection.
I have several models of machines (7 at the moment) and the grinder would make a nice addition. It's condition is not an issue but working would be nice.

I'm a little like you...I have three Merrow machines - MG-3U, 22FJ, 3DW. Not really sure why. But I love how well they are made. I bought them all off of ebay and had each and every little part disassembled on each after I bought them to see how they worked and to clean them up.
Just today I finished merrowing 50 nametags for a squadron out at the air force base near me (I'm retired USAF) and it's taken me many, many moons to figure out how to successfully merrow an edge. I'm OK now but will need to do many more nametags to be as good as Mardon.

I pretty much gave up trying to do edges without the "3U" machine. I buy pre Merrowed patches and stick to standard sizes. I sell a holder for the 3 common sizes. ( www.patchthing.com ).
I do love the way the machines run. I am downsizing and am down to a single 70 series machine I use for some general sewing and to edge a GPS sun shade I make and sell. These machines can't be beat for what they do.

Charlie, Any chance you can upload a better video on how to set the loopers? I was having issues tonight. The machine would make a chain like a champ but as soon as put a patch on the machine the upper looper thread would break. Many times many times. I figured it was an adjustment issue. I tried to adjust the lower looper so that the point was slightly above the eye of the needle. This required an adjustment of the upper looper and when adjusting the upper looper it snapped in two.

Linda Chan replied to Linda Chan's discussion 'New' old Merrow 60w"Hello Charlie,
I have left messages with Hoffman Brothers and have not received a response as of yet. I have, however, found that the bubbler on the machine was just loose and that is why it was leaking. It still does not sew properly. Do you know…"
