Members ErinTwinFlameLeatherCo Posted January 13, 2019 Author Members Report Posted January 13, 2019 Thank you so much everyone for your advice. This has def. been helpful and I'm going to check out both of them on Monday. The seller has both machines, so ill decide when I get there but I'm still leaning more towards the 206. Based on the photos of the heads, do they seem like they have a lot of wear? I know that you may not be able to say just by that, but any info is helpful. Thank you so much, Erin Quote

Thank you so much, Erin You can buy a brand new Consew P-1206rb for under a thousand dollars. It is similar to the 206 mechanism, but is self oiling and lacks the safety clutch button. If you remember to hold back the starting threads and maintain proper threading and top tension you won't need a safety clutch.
