Luke Hatley Report post Posted March 22, 2009 ryano, why would you not use the 794 needle, and use the landis 1 ? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ryano Report post Posted March 23, 2009 Well Luke I have 100 Landis one, number 26, needles for one. I know they are 2 something a piece, but these were free. I wanted this thing to keep sewing an inch. I wanted to use the 1000 H series needles, but I heard they are now discontinued. I may change my mind and go with the 794 needles because I just bought another machine that came with 1000 794 and 7x3 needles. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Luke Hatley Report post Posted March 23, 2009 thanks for the information... I thought i was learning about sewing machine needles. but just learned.... use what have. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ryano Report post Posted March 23, 2009 Luke, The 794 needles are about 1/4 shorter, and the Landis needles are about 1/4 longer than the 97x4 needles that are used in the 97-10 machine. So to keep the machine sewing an inch of leather I wanted to use the landis needles. If I dropped down to the 794 needles I can only sew 3/4 of material. That's all.

mdpeterson Report post Posted March 24, 2009 ryano; I think the presser foot that I need is #58929 ( toe at left of needle). Would this foot be the one needed for use with a stirrup plate? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
