Hello
I am new here, so hello to everybody.
I am from Poland and there is not much info about industrial machines in Polish sites, actually I have found nothing about it. I keep visiting this forum for month, and the same time I am searching info about sewing leather.
I sell clothes online for 9 years and I decided to start making some of my own. I have familiar, very talented tailor, but she has only old light weight sewing machines.
Now I am looking for my first machine for leather.
My favorites for now are:
1. one of less expensive: HIGHLEAD GC0618-1-SC , TYPICAL GC 6-7 or GC0628 (Juki 241H clone).
2. little pricier: JUKI DNU-1541 or HIGHLEAD GC20618-1.
More expensive machines have vertical bobbin and there is one difference I can find myself. Is this important? Or maybe they have more features, more important.
I have no idea how it goes so I am not sure is it worth to spend much money. But if sewing will be worth it or just give me fun, hobby and good spending my time - I don't want that for couple years it will turn out I could spend little more and make sewing much easier and just nicer.
Oh, I forgot to mension - I have no clue about sewing.... for now.
I have Highlead major distributor in my city, 10minutes from my home, but I don't know how to compare to Juki - can I or my tailor will know the diffrence (she do her job 50years). I think it is major Highlead's advantage for me. But Juki is very known in Poland, and it is Japanese.
Please treat me with indulgence, I don't want to ask stupid questions, I just don't want to spend 1-2.000$ in stupid way.
Regards.
