RoosterShooter Report post Posted October 9, 2012 I have access to either of these machines for around $300 in fully operational condition. Can I use either of these machines for holster making using 7 to 8 oz leather? This is assuming I will be sewing 2- 7 to 8 oz pieces together. Thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
