Artisan 618 Mods

Recommended Posts

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.

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.

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.
