I guess this Typical GC 20606-1 isn't a popular choice. But, somehow i'm attracted to triple feed feature it has For little more price than Juki DNU-1181N As Far As I Know, This machine is a direct copy of the Mitsubishi LU2-4400(Single Needle) simmiliar to HighLead GC20618 Regards, VDY

Hello, I usually sew heavyweight nylon goods such as Cordura, now i would like to expand my machinery capabilities to stitch LeatherGoods After countless browsing on this forum, i narrowed my choice between 2 machines on my budget Juki DNU-1881 Typical GC 20606-1 As Far as I know, The Must Have Feature on leather Sewing Machine : TripleFeed/Compound Feed/Unison Feed High Foot Lift (Typical GC 20606-1 = 13mm[The manual book said it's 16mm] , Juki DNU-1881 = 16mm) Servo Motor (This is the only one i could get HMC ZYT116-13H) Speed Reducer if Possible Unfortunately In my place(Indonesia) most of the machines listed in LW Forum considered as 'Exotic Machines'. Even Juki 1541 considered as 'Not Affordable' by the Machine Dealers The Machines i could find in dealers mosty China brand & i don't have access to acquire another machines such as except two above. Juki 1881 is a 'Top-Bottom feed' which considered not optimal for sewing leather goods & some of LW member said that it will mark the leather Meanwhile the Typical GC 20606-1 is a 'Triple Feed' machine, but it seems like a 'high risk bet' if i ended up purchasing it meanwhile this machine isn't familiar with LW members I see on youtube a leatherworker from russia using the typical ones, but unfortunately i can't speak russian & using translate tools doesn't help me to understand his opinion regarding his machine I would like to hear any opinion about those machines, especially about 'what they can do' & 'what they can't do'

Greetings, I'm Vandy from Indonesia I'm a new guy to leathergoods stuff, I consider myself very lucky found this website. Now I know(a little bit) why some leathergoods in my country 'good on the outside & bad on the inside' I'm flooded with massive information and of course i can't wait to try make one myself I'm familiar with old(year 1991) Home Sewing Machine(Butterfly), but i realize that i need to ultilize different equipment for serious leathergoods craft. I intent to craft small stuff first, such as Pouches,CardHolder,LooseLeaf/Book cover then try some belts and holsters I'm ready to learn, & definitifely i need to learn a lot.
