Bree Report post Posted June 27, 2009 I have a DNU 1541-S. I have owned and used it for about 6 years now. Finest sewing machine I have and I have many. It isn't cheap but it is rugged, reliable, accurate, and easy to use. It never misses a stitch and sews most anything that I can throw at it from leather to lace. If mine was stolen, I would immediately buy another. Top quality piece of equipment. The one thing that I did change was to pull the clutch motor and replace with a servo. It is a very strong clutch motor but I need the speed control for my work. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

All that you need is a good standard servo which you can find for a fraction of Juki's price through one of the machine companies here... Artisan, Neels Saddlery, Cobra etc. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Artisan, Neels Saddlery, Cobra etc. If you need a servo motor we have them any time you are ready. Our price is $125.00, plus shipping. The servo motors we use have no mechanical brake. They use an electronic brake and they seem to be the best ones we have seen so far. Extremely smooth -- Extremely quiet. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
