Members 3arrows Posted February 9, 2010 Members Report Posted February 9, 2010 Hi, everyone, hope yall are doing ok. We are about to mildew down here in Georgia if it rains anymore. Though, I guess this is better than snow and ice. Anyway, Im trying to see if anyone has a used and not too abused Center Groover Leather Presser Foot that would fit my Artisan Toro 4000 sewing machine. Let me know if anyone has one for sale...thanks ron. Quote

Just grind away each side of the foot untill you have a center rib that sticks up about 1/16 inch, or higher if you wish. I have modified both top and bottom foot mon my machine so that it sets the thread just lower than the surface of the leather. Makes the thread last a lot longer on harness and is not as labor intensive as having to cut groves by hand. Jim Quote
