Searching for the right Flatbed

Recommended Posts

I have a CB 3200 and love it. I mostly work medium to heavy veg tanned leather. Its tuned and working great.

But on occasions I need to sew some lighter weight leather similar to garment leather and straps like on the case below.. The CB 3200 can definitely handle the 138/207 thread that I want to use,  but I would prefer a flatbed for some of these materials as I do not want to keep re-threading and adjusting the 3200 for the lighter thread. Plus on ocassion I might want to use 92 thread as well.

Do I need another machine for the volume that I produce? No.....but I want one..

I have looked at Juki, Consew, Techsew as well as the Cowboy 1541s. I want one with a servo than can slow it down to a walk.

Any suggestions based on your personal preferences? I am not located where trying these out is feasible. I don't want to go crazy price wise, but figure under $2000 and less would be better.
