rosiart Report post Posted November 5, 2015 For the sewing machine gurus, how important do you think the safety clutch feature is on a machine for light/medium weight leather sewing? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gottaknow Report post Posted November 6, 2015 Safety clutches are a really great time and problem saver, no matter what you're sewing. Machines can jam for other reasons than thick materials. The less you know about industrial machines, the more you need one. Regards, Eric Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rosiart Report post Posted November 6, 2015 Thanks, Eric. That's exactly what I needed to know. I had a sneaky suspicion that was the case since I know that although I haven't had the dreaded birds nest jam yet, Murphys law means it will happen at some point. My current machine has the safety clutch but unfortunately the machine I thought I was going to buy does not so I think it has to come off my wish list.
