Yes you can use lighter thread, I have and used size 18 needles. Bert.

This post may be of some help. Bert.

Yep, your right Constabulary, Plastic Fantastic Machines can sew anything, just ask the seller. But you might need to upgrade the power the power supply. Bert.

Sadly, I do not have any trust in them, any more. Bert.

I have found that sewing any stretch knit fabric, Heavy or light I need to use SUK needles and back off your top tension a little. SUK Needles are Ball Point needles and I have found them to work well on all stretch or elastic materials. Bert.

I think this is a lesson we all learn the hard way, I did in my early days of sewing. I thought I would be clever and get as much thread as possible in the bobbin only to find as you did that the bobbin will jam or be hard to turn and stuff up all you tensions. It does not matter which bobbin I fill now, I only fill them to about 90% of capacity. Bert.

I just had a quick look at the spec's for 62x59 needles and they are 41.4 mm , while 135x16 is 38.9 mm long. I don't know if you have you needles set at the right height for those needles. Bert.

All mine are black, but it sure looks pretty in white and gold. Bert.

Wow, it looks nearly to good to use, nearly. I hope this inspires others to build their own Stitching Pony. It does not need to be as good as your, so long as it works, that is all that matters. Bert.

I think dikman has a good point, I would not class them as leather sewing machines, they are more suited to sewing heavy material or light canvas at best. Some of my machines are older then me and still sew like they did when new, I would hate to see one of those after sewing leather for a while. They look like my daughters plastic fantastic sewing machine, the plastic twists as it sews anything heavier then bed sheets. Bert.
