George B Report post Posted January 25, 2011 I have a heavy stitcher for my saddle work and heavy leather work...but... I need a machine to do the lighter leather, chaps, chinks, bucking rolls and decroative stitching on seats and such. Unfortunately I cannot afford a Juki 8700 new or used, but I still need a machine, used, in good condition at an affordable price? Any suggestions? Any machines I can find at auctions or second hand stores? Thanks for any help. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It may be what you are looking for and they retail for $699. Hope this helps, Rick Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
