Members Darren Brosowski Posted June 10, 2018 Members Report Posted June 10, 2018 A lot of work has gone into the OUTLAW to overcome issues with some other machines. The reciprocating action creates higher loads than a rotary so the cast iron body and metal gears are a must even though this makes it heavier. It also has the larger shuttle as used in the CB4500. We are eagerly awaiting our stock in Australia. Quote
Members Matt S Posted June 10, 2018 Members Report Posted June 10, 2018 I realise this is getting towards the edge of what these lever-action machines are designed for, but a great accessory would be some sort of power adapter. I'm thinking a double acting pneumatic ram attached to a valve in the pedal. Toe down needle down. Heel down needle up. Much easier control for someone who isn't used to controlling sewing machines and keeps things relatively simple. Another advantage over electric power would be that you could run it off a portable air tank, truck/tractor compressor or even a petrol compressor of "off grid". Quote

I wish it would have come out a few months ago... I knew I was going out for back surgery and would be home for a few months (workman's comp, a metal stair collapsed under me and shattered a vertebrate. I was hoping the Outlaw would have been out in march but it got pushed back. So I bit the bullet and bought the Tippmann Boss. Have had zero problems with it after getting the bobbin tension adjusted properly. Have made several bags and backpacks ...even sold one on Etsy. I like the idea of the larger throat room on the Outlaw. Sewing a 17" laptop bag was a little hard in places on the Boss. I think the Outlaw should have went with 12" of throat room... I do love my Boss, and plan on building a cobbler's bench for it so I can bring it with me up to the cabin on the weekends so I can sit outside on my deck and work on a project. Buying the Boss, was a good learning experience and eventually I want to upgrade to the Cowboy 4500 for the extra throat room... but I need to sell another 9 bags first lol...and learn to live with it in my bedroom lol (which is right next to my shop).

The repetition could be the workout I agree. It has my interest in all its functions and such, yep! Pretty cool. Good day Floyd Floyd, OUTLAW leather sewing machine is designed for hobby market, see the video linkage, https://youtu.be/TGSqsUV1Abk , if you continue to work on this machine for several hours, you maybe tired!!
