sjyeager Report post Posted March 14, 2019 Hi, I am currently looking for a sewing machine but I don't know what I'm looking for and I don't have too much money to spend on one either. There is a Singer 111G156 industrial Sewing Machine for sale in my area for $450 and I was wondering if it was a good deal and/or if anyone had experience with the machine and knew if it would hold up to stitching projects like belts, purses or wallets? I would really appreciate some help. Thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wizcrafts Report post Posted March 14, 2019 Yes, that is a standard compound (triple) feed walking foot machine, good for all types of upholstery, belts, wallets, pouches, gabs, etc. It can sew up to 3/8 inch with #138 bonded thread. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
