[DStar]

Hello,

I have search this forum for this singer 196K205 model, but nothing found. Is this machine any good for sewing 5-8mm thick leather, sewing it daily. (mainly belts, collars, bags..)

Machine is like this one.. they are saying that it can sew 10mm leather, but i would rather hear it from you

This machine will sew garment weight leather and light leather bags. If you want to sew belts and collars you should look for a a walking foot machine.

Thanks,

Ron
