Members Rock76 Posted August 18, 2009 Members Report Posted August 18, 2009 Hi Bob,On the center presser foot modifications, you cut a small slot or v-notch so you can see where the needle enters the leather, leaving as much of the original foot as possible. Then you have to polish the hell out of everything using sand cloth, sand string, or whatever so that the thread (upper) will not catch on the foot. I usually deep six the skeg too. As far as that guard wire thingy that they put on the new machines/feet to keep you from doing stupid things, that gets lost after about 10 minutes. Art Hey Art, any chance you might be able to post a picture of your modified center presser foot? I'm interested in trying this but am having trouble visualizing what the notch should look like. Thanks! -Adam Quote
