Andrew Chee Report post Posted January 23, 2014 Hello all. Here is the latest bag that I've finished. It's based off of some "hunting bags" that I see around. It's made from a soft milled full veg tan italian cowhide with an American made canvas liner and strap. Andrew Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Andrew Chee Report post Posted January 24, 2014 The liners and smaller stitches were sewn using 69 thread size 18 needle on a Consew 206RB flatbed. The external stitches were sewn using 138 thread size 21 needle on a Pfaff 335 The handle was sewn using 207 thread size 23 (I think) needle on an Artisan Toro 3000 The canvas is a 12oz. brown American canvas. You can find that at Pacific Denim. You can see what's available from their website. Andrew Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Andrew Chee Report post Posted January 24, 2014 I kinda cheat. I have needle positioner servos with speed reducers on my Consew and Pfaff. Makes control super easy. Andrew Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
paprhangr Report post Posted January 24, 2014 I have needle positioner servos with speed reducers on my Consew and Pfaff. What is the exact model servo motor do you use on the consew 206? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andrew Chee Report post Posted January 24, 2014 It's the CS-1001 (I think that's the model number) that I see on eBay. The cheapest one I could find. BTW, there is a flaw with the controllers on those servos. They seem to go slow slow slow.. FAST.... There's a fix you can do to get better gradual speed control on them. Do a search on this site and you can find it. Someone made a Youtube video how to do the mod and it's very easy. I don't use a positioner on my big Artisan cause those things go slow enough as it is that I don't need one. Andrew Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
