dfrancorr Report post Posted November 2, 2015 This weekend my barber and I were talking leather and Sewing machines and he mentioned to me he had a Rex 800-2 Blind Stitch Industrial Sewing Machine in his storage that had been sitting around for a few years. He does not know how to use it, or what its used for and neither do I. Can anyone give me some insight on this machine and if can be used for leather working (purses, wallets...etc)? Thanks!
