Members BattleAx Posted Saturday at 01:37 PM Members Report Posted Saturday at 01:37 PM I got the old girl sewing like a champ. I had a CB4500 but really wanted a Landis 16 needle and awl machine. Eli really dialed her in I called him to get some pointers on how to sew with this machine. Still learning but this machine really sews a beautiful stitch on both sides of the leather. I us the machine for the sides and corners of my tote bags the leather is 5 to 6 OZ. The little Consew 206RB-5 I bought from Bob over at Toledo Industrial Sewing Machines and the CB4500 I sold that to a saddle maker in the Columbia SC area. I use the Consew for the Marine Canvas and boat upholstery work. I have a booth at the Cottage in Georgetown SC for all my leather works make a lot of ladies purses. I needed another heavy leather stitcher for my leather work. I just love these old machines.. Quote

Yes it did on the larger leather pieces it works out nice. The tote bags I use a 5 to 6oz and the leather that is soft or milled and this helps out. Its a game changer with this machine.. Quote
