Members Isaac95 Posted May 9, 2024 Members Report Posted May 9, 2024 Hello all, I have been on the look out for a cheap machine to kick start my small leather business and happened to come across this machine in my area. Unfortunately, I am unable to find any information online about this machine based on the pictures that were given. The owner claims it can sew leather (of course) but I am doubtful without knowing more. Does anyone have any information regarding this Consew/Brother Model 80? Thanks for the help! Quote
Members Constabulary Posted May 10, 2024 Members Report Posted May 10, 2024 (edited) looks lie a Singer 95 or 95K clone it for sure can sew some garment leather but it is designed as a tailoring machine. So depends of what you want to sew / produce if this machine is suitable or not. Edited May 10, 2024 by Constabulary Quote
Members AlainaZ Posted May 11, 2024 Members Report Posted May 11, 2024 If it is indeed a Singer 95 clone I sewed with one of those professionally for years and it was probably the best machine I've ever used. I was mostly doing dressmaking, but I managed a wide range of materials on it, including about 5/8" thick of muslin. The only thing you may not like is it is a small machine so the distance between the needle and the side is less. (Note: it's been 12 years since I left that job so my memory about it could be faulty!) Quote
