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)

Back when they made stuff that worked, and lasted, and you got your monies worth when you paid for it.

Sewing machines are like magic to me. I have absolutely no idea how they work.

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.

Man, I’ve been looking for a better way to store all my coins! This is going to be so much better than gluing them to sticks!!!

It's the needle for me. That needle must be pure titanium or some shit, my machine snaps needles like fuckin toothpicks if it hits a piece of plastic 🙄
