highdsrtrider Report post Posted January 5, 2010 I inherited a Consew 754R. I'm a complete novice to leather working although I am extremely excited to start on my new addiction. Any thoughts on this machine, pros/cons? It's a 2003 with the clutch motor. Any information, ideas or pointers will be greatly appreciated. I want to start making saddles, holsters, and chaps.

CowboyBob Report post Posted January 5, 2010 I've sold a few of these models over the years & yes they will sew to maybe 5/8" or so thickness,they have a needlefeed,there's not much available for feet other than buy a standard foot & modify it buy cutting off one side or the other.It will take #277 thread easy & use the Schmetz 794S leather point needles that we stock.
