i don't have one yet but I will shortly from Bob at Toledo Industrial. Fortuna with top and bottom feed.

To handle both thin and heavy leather it needs to be top and bottom feed. I believe the Cobra is this type.

I have a Cobra NP-10 which is the top and bottom feed. It will do thick veg tan without problems. Thinnest I have tried is 3-4oz which worked well. It will do any chrome tan all day.

They are all a little tricky to adjust. Skiving a bunch of scrap will give you an indication of how it works. You can find some YouTube videos by Campbell Bosworth that explain a lot.
