mike6642 Report post Posted June 8, 2016 Finally after much research I bought cowboy 227 from neils saddlery, never sewed before Ryan spent 3 hrs walking me through the process of threading and sewing. I went home had some young strong kids carry everything in basement and set it up and sewed some leather, changed bobbin thread and sewed some more. No more hand sewing messenger bags for me. Everything went well thanks to Ryan at neils saddlery spending so much time with me, it paid off because I was able to get the machine up and running. I have to admit I for got to install the belt at first okay I made some mistakes. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
