    Wizcrafts, Thank you so much for getting back to me so quickly.... My Singer machine is currently in storage, although hoping to get it out soon, have it serviced and I will get the guy to maybe implement the changes you have suggested. Or do you think I would be better trading this old machine in and purchasing something newer?

    Help with leather sewing machine decision - Please! Hello everyone! I need some help deciding what to do about a machine. As I already own a Singer 45K which tends to sew too quickly for me. I have read on this forum about SERVO motors - So I looked on Youtube and watched some video and quite like the look ot them. But even though I own the singer machine, I am still very much a novice with regards to threading and setting the tension. Would a Servo Motor work on this old machine? And I am also considering purchasing a Tippmann Boss - which of course I can control the speed it sews and it seems a good machine to learn on - threading and tension. ( although I have read on this forum some people have had issues with this...) I am based in the UK and my leather work consists of: Re-rubbering reins ( horse racing) which takes two hours by hand....But need to speed this up... Stitching and making bridles/ head collars (halters) - currently hand stitiching repair of race exercise saddles etc.... I have also seen various powered machines mentioned on this forum, ie TECHSEW, COBRA, COWBOY, etc... Being in the UK I am not sure about customer service and backup. If anyone has advice for me I would be very greatful - or any other sugestions about machines I have not mentioned.... Many thanks JC in the UK
