Dana, what handwheel did you use for this souped up CP206RL? I'm trying to find a handwheel that is larger then the original one that came with the unit. Thanks in advance for your assistance.

It would be the same as the original machine as there was no change to the machine itself.  Look up the specs for Consew CP206RL.

Sorry to resurrect a zombie thread, but I just bought a Consew CP206RL and I want to sew vegtan with it.  Of course it does just fine with the sample "leather" that is shipped under the foot, but Even some 3 oz garment leather I have causes the motor to stall.  I bought a servo motor and controller very similar to the one listed above from walmart to add to a chinese shoe patcher, but never could get the shoe patcher tension right so gave up.

Anyway, my question is about the pulley mentioned years ago in this post.  Does this pulley go on the motor shaft, or on the Sewing machine drive shaft?  The clutch on drive shaft also slips like crazy.  Does the "servo motor" drive totally eliminate this stupid clutch?  Thanks in advance!
