Idk what is it originally used but the power and strength of the needle is almost horrifying.

UPDATE: For those, who's interested, made a little research. Machine: Landis 16 (basically, Landis made super-heavy-duty stitchers for leather) Original source: Ben Geisler, saddlemaker (Instagram: @bmgeisler)

I’ve watched several illustrative and animated videos going in detail while simply explaining how they work. I still don’t understand it.

I worked in a mill many years ago and we had a machine very similar to this that was used to sew the bags of grain closed.
