I am aware of heavy duty machines.. I have a tippman boss but it was used and needs repairs. I used the singer before and it worked fine I just was wanting to make bigger projects at the times. I upgraded to a consew rl206 but then got the boss and wanted that to be my main machine. I do not have a budget for a larger machine I am looking for anyone who has used a singer for leather since I know the one I had worked just trying to see if I have to go get the same one or not
What brand is your machine?
Anyone used either of these machines for leather long term? I had a 6600c and ended up selling it to another leather worker and she loves it and I regret selling it but since been looking into the 4423 since I don't need computerized and don't need a lot of stitching options. Just wondering if anyone on here uses as their everyday machine for leather
Did anyone change the foot on theirs? I just got one of these and been practicing on scraps and notice that the foot texture is causing the leather to have indentation and rubbing off the dye on embossed leathers. Is there a smooth walking foot?
In search of a used Cobra Class 26, 3, or 4. I'm located on the central coast of California will to drive to the valley or a few hours to meet up for one if price is right.
Thank you for the reply. I would love a cobra class 26 but it's just out of the budget now. I'm hoping to find something budget friendly for the time being. Any other recommendations?
Has anyone had and used a Consew 206RL? I've been looking into getting a new sewing machine. I had a singer heavy duty 6000c and it worked good for the most part. The spool was limited and I was working on a guitar strap and it kicked back on me. It worked well for small projects like wristlet keychains etc. I'm thinking the Consew would be an upgrade from the singer since it has a walking foot but it seems like it's for lighter duty. Does anyone have experience with this model?
