Fd3615 Report post Posted January 16, 2014 I recently purchased a cobra class 4. I am wondering what the tricks are for sewing backing material onto straps. If it is a leather backing I know I can glue / stitch, and then finish the edges. What if i want to sew some form of padding? what are the tips and tricks?

Install padded material foot onto machine. 2. Sew the material so padded side is against foot. Leather should be next to feed dog and needle plate. 3. I would use a 277 thread top and bottom. 4. If foot is too large, you can remove a toe on either side with a dremal cutoff tool. We offer replacement feet for low cost if you need another one to modify. They will fit your machine with no problems. Hope this helps. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
