Members Dually Posted January 23, 2015 Members Report Posted January 23, 2015 Has anyone modified their 618sc by shaving the walking foot to accept thicker leather? Will it work? I just need a couple mm more thickness. Quote Trust in God, but tie your horse. Randy
Cobra Steve Posted January 24, 2015 Report Posted January 24, 2015 The problem with that is the heaviest thread that you should use is a 138 top and bottom so if you want to sew heavier than 20oz. you will run into problems when using the appropriate thread size which would be 207 or 277 and the 618 will not take that thread size.

Members Dually Posted January 24, 2015 Author Members Report Posted January 24, 2015 I figured there was a catch. Thanks for responding Steve. Guess I just need a bigger stitcher for some of the thicker projects. Some day. Quote Trust in God, but tie your horse. Randy
