There is a Singer long are machine for sale locally, and I would like some expert advice if this would be a machine I should consider. I'm going to be sewing gun belts, holster, motorcycle seats, wallets, purses, and so on and on.

Here is the info posted on the craigslist add.

The same place also has this machine available. http://raleigh.craigslist.org/ard/5065605621.html

Yamata Sewing Machine

Also would I be able to put a 110v motor on this machine?

Despite its size, the 144 is still an upholstery grade machine. It will max out with a #23 needle and 138 bonded thread. It will sew better with #92 thread. This machine is built to sew tarps, tents, upholstery covers and sails. It is not a holster makers' machine.
