Hello everyone! I have a few questions. I am looking into purchasing a Cobra Class 18 machine and was hoping to speak with someone who has worked with one. I have a Ferdco Pro 440 and I have had a few problems with it and wanted to see if it was similar to the Cobra. Firstly, I have had problems with the walking foot leaving marks on the leather as I sew it, sometimes they're so bad I have to scrap the project. Secondly, I have a hard time sewing certain things like rodeo chaps where there are delicate leathers on top of heavier ones, the lighter leather gets eaten up by the foot and it becomes scratched or deformed. Thirdly, for some of my more decorative work I need something that will use a smaller needle and thread, for things like spur straps and belts. If anyone has used the Cobra Class 18 and can tell me whether or not these issues are the same as my ferdco, please let me know! Any information would be greatly appreciated!
Blessings,
Morgan
