I have been hand sewing everything and now that I have been trying to make bigger things like bags and backpacks, the time it takes is becoming a problem. I have 2 kids so I only get a short amount of time. I was looking at a singer heavy duty but it seems like its not advisable to use it for 4-5oz veg tan and that it basically will degrade the machine very quickly.
I live in an apartment so I can't have a table but it seems like you can run the 29-4 without a table and you can also just handcrank it (please correct me if I'm wrong) I see them in the 200-400 dollar range which is about all I would want to spend at the moment.
Any others have a similar experience?
