Some surface rust on the frame, but works as it should. Located in Granite Falls on the Connelly Springs Rd side.

I do not know the history of this machine. Will not call or text anyone. The Consew 225 is a heavy-duty industrial walking foot sewing machine, often considered a workhorse for sewing thick materials like leather, canvas, upholstery, and vinyl. It is highly regarded for its compound feed system (needle feed, walking foot, and drop feed) that prevents material shifting.

It is often used for auto/boat upholstery, tarpaulins, and leatherwork. Key Features & DetailsFeed System: Compound feed (walking foot) ensures consistent, powerful feeding of heavy materials. Stitch Type: Straight lockstitch, generally with a manual reverse function, ideal for heavy-duty stitching. Bobbin Capacity: Uses a large capacity bobbin, which is effective for using thick thread.

Compatibility: Uses standard 135x17 needles, which are common for industrial machines. Lubrication: It is not self-oiling, meaning it requires manual daily oiling. Design: Often described as a "clone" of the Singer 111W155, making parts easy to find.
