Hey that post on the overlock serger rally something I interested investing into , I do a LOT of tape seam binding .
I really looking for a ' alternative ' to ( inside seam bind ) of my articles . what can that Juki model you got do with the heavy den.cordura's ? .
could it sew ( 2-layers of 1-k den. ) with ( 2-layers of 200 den. lining ) ?
Does it do a nice clean trim look for Serge edge ? / is it double needle ?
thanks ....ray

Ray,
I think it will go through 4 layers of 1000D like it wasn't there. It does make a nice edge. I need to spend some time and experiment to see if I can finish the end of the stitch better. Right now I just run it off and trim. I suppose it could try to unravel. Maybe do a little tack with a lockstitch machine at the ends. The T-46 bonded nylon makes a very nice finished edge.

I 99% of time just sew #69 thread . 4 layer 1-k den. would be sweet, I got multi-layer nylon items that I would like to not Tape anymore and a nice Serged finish seam would be acceptable for the Inside finish . Inside edges are pretty protected . I usually always do a double-needle tape seam outside because of the rugged abuse it takes . I know where several heavy industrial Sergers are stored at a Tech's house over otherside of portland 205 Br. and I will go over and see what he has that is on the heavy work side .
I just now noticed your name ( john noveske ) and your Web-link . are you related/family to the Noveske rifle inc. ?
