Hightex cb3200 questions

Recommended Posts

Hi All,

I just bought a second hand hightex CB3200 which is working like a charm. It came with very little to nothing accessories (standard needle plate + narrow needle plate and the double toe harness foot) and I am in search of what could be added in order to fit to my main activity which is basically light horse tack (bridles, halters, etc), holsters and knife sheath so I started to look into what was available and I have several questions to people who actualy have an work with this machine.

- what feet/needle plates are essential for that kind of work : light horse tack (bridles, halters, etc), holsters and knife sheath ?

- will chinese needle plates tagged as "for durkopp adler 205-370" be compatible with a CB3200 ?

Thank you very much for your answers

If I'm not mistake the CB3200 will take the Juki TSC-441 accessories but would suggest you contact @CowboyBob as he would know for sure.

@Damas The 441 pressure feet will interchange BUT both the needle plates & feed dog do not interchange with the 441 or the 205.I'm almost certain you can use the standard plate for all of your sewing needs.The only other plate that is available is a slotted one which requires removal of the feed dog,this is used for thinner leather.

Thank you both for your suggestions and answers. I was thinking about both the stirup and the holster plates (raised ones) which are used without the feed dog according to my understanding, as the slotted one mentionned by you @CowboyBob

Also good to know that the standard plate can do all

They won't work on this machine they are close to 10mm tall & you only have around 13mm foot lift.
