Mr G. Sure, I'm done with this topic and sure didn't want to start peeing contest or flaming.
My bad, excuses to everybody who might have been offended.
No need to open a new thread in my point of view. If somebody wants to do that I can contribute, but in constructive way.
Nice manners are nice.

am i missing something? looks like a standard hem. just an folder foot on a straight sewer will do the trick unless you want one just for hems then you'll obviously need a leg hemmer.
let hemmer would have a free arm so you can hem with leg still the right way round [just like your union special] but on a plain sewer you will need to turn the leg inside out.
Just put out feelers in the UK for a machine/folder that will do this type of hem. I'm getting prepped for the arrival of the Chino's…...........

No you are not missing anything, but I do not have a folder that will do this nor do not know whether I can get one that will fit my old Singer, hence I've asked my local industrial sewing machine man to sort me out – I may need just a folder, I may need a new machine plus folder. Either way, I do not know the answer….

I've tried and am shit at it….........And anyway, I can hem a pair of jeans on the Union in about 5 minutes, to do the Chinos neatly would involve a load of fiddly turning and ironing and would take ages longer. I'm not a seamstress, I just want to get the things done and out of the door as efficiently as possible................

haha fair enough. i am a tailor [or at least that's what i call myself] so it comes naturally to me.
in that case i would get a leg hemmer if you can
