likestojump 3 #2 November 16, 2013 mrfalconfixerLooking to buy a used bartacker for line set and misc minor rigging repairs.......any recommendations? I had a Juki LK982 mechanical cam driven tacker for a number of years. It was a good machine, but doing any kinds of adjustments was a major PITA. And it was super fast. Finally got me a Juki LK-1900-AHS for Valentine's day this year (no shit, no one loves me more than myself), and it's been my best friend since. After paying Mel for a chip with all the factory patterns I feel like I have been cheating myself for years by using a mechanical tacker. so - GET AN ELECTRONIC PROGRAMMABLE BARTACKER !!!

councilman24 36 #5 November 16, 2013 I and a friend have both gotten very good to like new Juki electronic bar tackers from Government Liquidators that auctions DOD surplus. He got a Juki 1900 that was in very good condition. I got a 1900A-hs that looked unused. In my case about 30% of new. They are uncommon but I've seen three that I would buy in the last two years. I would not buy from a place called DEMA in Texas. They had some on ebay for a long time but when I called tried to bait and switch. Said they were gone and tried to sell me a new one. Same machines/photos continually re-listed. YMMVI'm old for my age. Terry Urban D-8631 FAA DPRE Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
