Shaunread Report post Posted December 16, 2014 Im looking into getting a Brother S-1110A-5 (Heavy Duty version) and wondered if a heavy duty machine would be suitable for upto 6mm leather as well as Fabrics such as Felt, thin leather, Canvas etc... Can anybody advise me? Reason im looking at this machine is as it is on sale and my budget is pretty thin! Any help would be great! Much Thanks!

Tramps Leatherworking Report post Posted December 16, 2014 I have no experience with this machine, but I don't think it is designed to sew 16 oz of leather... It is also bottom feed only which will not be optimum for sewing multiple layers of leather. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If your ging to be sewing that many diffferent fabrics yoy can use the same machine but change thread and needlesfor the lighter weighted fabrics. I have an adler.
