serena Report post Posted October 11, 2009 Is there a sewing machine that will handle sewing 1-2 oz all the way up to 6-7 oz., what model/brand would I need to look for, or do I need to buy 2 or 3 machines to do this type of work (one for the light end and one for the heavy)? Im wanting to make clothing and leather hats, and so that is the reason for the broad spectrum of thicknesses. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Im wanting to make clothing and leather hats, and so that is the reason for the broad spectrum of thicknesses. I wanted to change this post but I don't know how as Im not good with computers. I wanted to change the 6-7 oz down to 2-4 oz, I realized my mistake after I posted this. Serena. Changing your post after you have submitted it is easy. At the bottom of your screen you should see a button called edit. You can then make changes (within a short timeframe after you post before this function can no longer be used) Once your happy with your changes, click the save changes button and wallah.

Barra Serena, you should only need 1 machine for that thickness. Either a roller foot machine, or a walking foot machine should be just fine. The real question is the thread size. The roller foot machine uses a 46 or 69 thread, and the walking foot machine takes up to a 138 size. Thanks Steve Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
