Looking at this Yamata fy5318 for sewing leather purses, wallets, nothing really thick. Does this seem like a good price / machine for what i need? http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-YAMATA-UPHOLSTERY-MACHINE-MODEL-FY5318-WALKING-FOOT-W-K-D-STAND-MOTOR-/110991474253?pt=BI_Sewing_Machines&hash=item19d79b7e4d

Im seeing a lot of Leather walking foot sewing machines in my price range on ebay such as Consew 206RB5 and a couple other reputable sewing machines, but they say it is for the HEAD ONLY. If i purchase the head only how hard is it from there for someone such as myself to purchase a servo motor and table and im guessing belts to put it all together. My husband is pretty mechanically inclined im sure he could figure it out just wondering if there is more to it than that??

I have a small budget for a leather sewing machine. I hope to be able to make some bags and use the money to save for a really nice leather sewing machine. BUT until then i am wondering if this Consew CP206r will sufice until the day comes i can purchase a better machine. I am intrested in sewing leather wallets, phone covers, purses. Here is the link to the sewing machine i am looking at : http://www.ebay.com/itm/Consew-CP206R-Portable-Walking-Foot-Industrial-Sewing-Machine-w-Carrying-Case-/300836539708?pt=BI_Sewing_Machines&hash=item460b414d3c Consew cp206r walking foot portable

I need a lot of help..... My husband is getting a little sick of seeing just my eyes peeking over my lap top... I've been doing a lot of research on which sewing machine to start with for sewing leather. I've been given the OK to purchase a leather sewing machine, problem is i have no idea what i am looking for, and what i need. I want to make leather purses, wallets, ect. Nothing major, nothing seriously thick. Just an average leather purse. I only have $600.00 to spend on a machine and i am hesitant on purchasing used. I've been looking at some Econosew, juki, sailrite, basically anything that will sew leather under $600 buckaroos. Right now i have your basic home sewing machine that i use all the time so i am not a novice in the sewing world just a novice in the leather sewing world. I tried sewing some leather with my brother sewing machine it pierced through and sews but it wont sew with a heavy weight thread. Here is what i would like: Sewing machine that will sew with a thicker thread. (40#?) would like zigzag but not necessary. walking foot flat working surface under machine if that makes sence? servo motor or no sperate motor... i am fond of the sailrite machine not sure why. i dont want the cheapo junk brand i would like a reputable machine. It does seem like there are some Econosew machines in my price range too are they decent? so any ideas would be appriciated.... I dont need complex anwsers just someone in simple terms to say for your light medium work you should look at this machine in your price range..... That would be soooo wonderful.... THank You in advance. Im not sure what thickness the leather will be im gu
