Hi I have an opportunity to look at a Consew 206 rb 1 for a listing price of $750 the current owner has had it for seven years and is the second owner. The motor is a clutch motor not a servo motor. Is this a good deal? I want to use the machine for belts, wallets and purses. thanks

Hello, I have been making knife sheaths sewing through three layers of 8oz leather. Using a vergez Blanchard 2.45 mm wide diamond awl, 002 John James needles and 0.8 ritza tiger thread. It is so tough to pull the needles through the leather, is the awl size to small? thanks in advance leather2
