  1. Ok, yea i done that this evening. I read alot of reviews on the boss. I am back to thinking the cowboy 3200. Uses 416 thread.
  2. I looked at the Tippman Boss today and it has great thickness sewing capacity at my budget point but I am not sure i want to work the handle while sewing. I have some experience sewing but pretty new to leather. I am thinking it would be awkward with the boss.
  3. I don't disagree with you, but i am so tired of hand sewing. There is about 700 price jump. Maybe I'll get lucky and find a used 3500.
  4. Thanks for the information. I did read the entire link and it was great information. There are so many options which lead to questions. I am leaning toward the Cowboy 3200 with a flat table attachment. It does however look like i have to save a few hundred more. I was thinking about the cowboy 2500 since it was in my budget of $1,500. but was worried about the fact it may mark the leather from the walking foot.
  5. We are looking to buy our first leather sewing machine and wanted some input from the forum. We are new to leather work and need some advice. We are a game call company and we are making leather cases for our game calls. We also plan on making arrow quivers and knife cases also in the future. We use veg tanned leather mostly 8 oz thick. Most of our stuff is double layers of 8 oz we will be sewing. I have read on the forum alot and saved our money rather than buying a home machine to make it work. I didn't want to make the newbie mistake as many warned about here on the forum. I have to admit buying a cheaper home machine and hope for the best has been tempting. I am tired of hand sewing . I have a budget of $1,500.00 and would like to have a servo motor. Is there any good machines out there at that price point or do i need to keep saving?
