Thank you . A local dealer said 1206rb was not a replacement for 206rb5 but a cheaper model to compete better with less expensive machines. consew website says it is a replacement. I don't really want to buy a new, and possibly inferior machine but if it might be their replacement it might be the thing to buy. I just want reliability and easy to find parts.

I'm looking for a Consew 206rb, Singer 111, etc. Let me know if you have anything.

I see mainly duty gear out of corduroy, scuba webbing, and regular nylon webbing. I have handstiched holsters and sheaths in the past but for now I mainly want a machine for nylon. I want something that can handle leather for belts but nylon is most of it for now.
There is a Consew 105rb-1 available used as well as a tacsew 111-155. I like the 105rb but it is not a needle feed machine, will that cause any issues for leather occasionally?
If I buy a new machine is the Consew 1206rb any good? I trust Consew name more than Tacsew but they look similar and have seen no reviews of 1206 on here?
Any advice you can give will be appreciated.

I picked up a used Techsew 2700 this week. I left a message on their website and they sent a manual that day.
