Thank you both for your help. It's much appreciated. I'm actually looking for something a little more simple like the first three machines mentioned. I have a needle ans awl in my shop right now, doesn't belong to me. I was very kindly given it to try, and its just a bit too tome consuming for me I'm afraid. I just need something more simple. I like the outlaw and weavers cub cause they are not huge. I dint have a ton of space in my shop right now unfortunately.

Do you still have this?

@CowboyBob I'm wondering could you put a wax pot on this machine and stitch with linen thread? I use 4 cord barbours.

Hello everyone. I've been doing leather work for about 25 years and it's mostly been hand sewing. I'm considering buying a simple machine that can stitch heavy leather. Sometimes sewing several layers of 10-12oz together. The trick i need to use linen thread. And I'd like to use a wax pot. Can I literally run a wax pot and linen on any heavier machinre? I usually use 4 cord. Iam considering the cowboy outlaw because of its simplicity. But I'm also looking as several 441 machines. Anyone have any ideas on using 4 cord linen thread and the wax pot? Also any recommendations on the machines? Thanks in advance for any and all help. I appreciate it. Brian Merrick

Hi. I know this thread is very old, sorry. But I was wondering can a juki LS-341N sew heavier leather like 10 oz and above with linen thread as long as a wax pot is used? Is there even a wax pot available for that machine? Thanks.
