Moderator Art Posted January 20, 2011 Moderator Report Posted January 20, 2011 Hi Duane, No way, never. Design max is 92, will maybe do 138/92. Nice machine though. Art Will this machine sew 277 thread? Thanks, Duane Quote
Members DuaneBallard Posted January 20, 2011 Author Members Report Posted January 20, 2011 Thanks Art. Wasn't sure. Looked on the net and couldn't find an answer besides thread size #40 - #8 whatever that means. That and a video on youtube showing someone sewing with some pretty heavy stuff but hard to tell what from a video. Thanks, Duane Hi Duane, No way, never. Design max is 92, will maybe do 138/92.

Luke, I noticed in the shot of that machine, you have a lot of "shoe lasts" (correct nomenclature ?) Curious, do you do a lot shoes or mostly moc types. ferg Quote
