machines on craigslist: what can handle 12oz net thickness?

[Wizcrafts]

That 30-1 is a long arm, but small bobbin patcher. The bobbins only hold a handful of yards of #69 thread. It is a low lift model, like the Singer patchers, which limits the thickness and stitch length. The torsion bar pressure spring on the back will hammer the teeth on the foot into the top grain mercilessly.

Now, if you want to attend motorcycle events and sew patches onto bikers' vests, that is the machine for the job!
