Thanks for the additional information.  on my top post I only went thru one hole.  and on the top tensioner I tried that loop 'once' instead of 'twice' and that seemed to help a bit more but I'm beginning to think that the stroke like you said might be too much for thinner leathers.

Thanks everyone for the suggestions.  I loosened up as advised and experimented with different needles.  While I got some satisfactory results they were not ideal to continuously use.  I reverted back my original setup and it's doing great.  I decided to go ahead and add another sewing machine that has a great range from #33-#138 thread.  I always knew I would need a second machine but I was anticipating to get it so soon.  I guess demands change.

 

BTW, I'm getting a Cowboy CB341.  have to wait about 4-6 weeks though.
