Members CustomDoug Posted November 2, 2014 Author Members Report Posted November 2, 2014 Round point needles are described in Campbell's chart under " point". 135 x 17 is a round point and will not have any designation unless it is a special point. Gump. Gump, your statement has confused me a little bit (probably my fault, sorry).. because I'm not seeing any mention of 'round' in their chart at all. But I think you're suggesting a common 135x17 (non leather) needle (no special point) for sewing soft thin garment leathers, for tighter holes and more SPI. Right?

Members Gump Posted November 2, 2014 Members Report Posted November 2, 2014 Doug; Sorry ,but its not in the chart , but the description labeled "points" in the text above the chart. And yes a round point forces open a hole instead of cutting one, therefor it closes up tighter and can be spaced closer without perforating the leather. Gump. Quote
