RoosterShooter Report post Posted January 31, 2020 There is an upholstery shop close to me that is closing down, and I was going to list the machines here to see if any of them will fit my needs. I am always looking for a reasonable 'extra' machine that will sew garment leather, bags, and machines that will sew up to 2 pieces of 8 ounce saddle skirting. Will any of these machines work for leather? Singer: W107W3 , 107-W-1 , 112W115 , and a 251-2 And JUKI DDL-5550 I almost know the Juki is no good for my use, because they used it to sew large piece of canvas and it's not a walking foot machine. However, what about any of the Singers? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
marronne Report post Posted January 31, 2020 The 107w1 is a belt driven zig zag machine. I have one and it does a nice straight stitch too. It goes through heavy canvas and soft, grosgrain type leather 3mm without too much trouble but I wouldn't do anything heavier. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
