Gotcha. I'm thinking about getting one asap and seeing how it goes. Thanks for the info, you've been a lot of help. I really appreciate it.

Any thoughts on getting one of these machines and putting a Sailrite Monster ll Power Wheel? Even Possible?

Is anyone else familiar with the Reliable Barracuda? I see very similar machines just sold as different brand name. Does anyone know if these are the same machines? Consew CP206RL REX RX-607Z SEWLINE NEW 146-7 NEW-TECH Portable Walking Foot Long Arm Zig Zag & straight sewing Machine 110 V

Thank you for your reply. I will look into the Reliable Barracuda. I'd have to have on shipped to store for pick up if I decide to go that route. I was under the assumption the portable walking foot machines were kinda bad buys ( from some post on here). Thanks again for response

Any advice or suggestions greatly appreciated.

Hello everyone, thanks for taking the time to read and help out. I know there is a bunch post like these, I read a lot of them. I still am having trouble picking a machine, I'm looking for a good machine to get started that will last a good while until I save more to buy a higher end machine. I don't have a huge budget honestly, Id like to be in for one for under $750. I'd love to be in for around $500 if possible. I'm very open to pre-owned because I know there might not be new ones in my price range. Ive been searching, i see some heads on eBay and was thinking of possibly purchasing and getting a servo motor. If there are any new ones capable of my needs even better. I'd be trying to sew light leather & thin PVC. I'd like to make light wallets ,card holders & key chains. Thanks in advance for taking time to read and respond.
