Contributing Member Regis Posted June 9, 2009 Contributing Member Report Posted June 9, 2009 Would someone give me some examples of roller post machines to read-up on. A year or so ago I read that "might" be the best for detailed work. I'm interested in a smooth machine for assembly and decorative stitching on light-medium leather for bags and other small things (2-3 layers of 2-6oz or up to perhaps 3/8"). I'd appreciate any info or experience of the roller post machine vs flatbed for this use. I have a Consew portable with monster wheel which will easily sew the thickness but, I want smoother machine with servo motor for more control for decorative stitching. Thanks, Regis Quote God, Family, and Country (although liberals are attempting to destroy these in the USA)
Moderator Art Posted June 13, 2009 Moderator Report Posted June 13, 2009 Hi Regis, The Highlead GC24618 is a driven roller (top and Botton) post machine. http://www.highlead.com.cn/hailing_english...D=product_10025 Then there is the Highlead GC24018 which has top roller and bottom feed dog and is less expensive. http://www.highlead.com.cn/hailing_english...D=product_10010 If you are looking to see these things, then you will probably have to go to the IFoLG show in Indianapolis, or the Boot and Saddlemakers Roundup in Wichita Falls, TX in late September/Early October.
