Russ Report post Posted October 19, 2010 Question for Bob, or Kevin King, or anyone else with a Juki 1541; What is the max thickness of leather one could comfortably sew with this model? I would like to get one to learn to sew wallets, wondering if I could also use it to sew lightweight chinks, ala 4/5oz diamond tan leather from Siegel with 4 oz yokes/plaquards for a total of about 8/9oz leather? My main goal is to sew wallets, but of course, using the machine for other uses would help justify the cost! Thanks! Russ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CowboyBob Report post Posted October 19, 2010 Russ, It should sew 10oz+ w/o much trouble.We sell alot of them & they are great machines.Just make sure to get the "S" model. Bob Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
