I have a Seiko STW-28B, was also a twin needle, but I only use it as a single needle machine. I use it for horse rugs, webbing, canvas, wallets, kangaroo hide leather goods. Your machine should be quite a strong machine . ( I also have a Pfaff 60) Have a look on the ' Sewing Machines ' thread, heaps of good info on there. HS Thank you, I will, love learning and love learning and certainly about sewing machines. Do you make horse rugs? 15 hours ago, tsunkasapa said: Welcome from the PNW.

If you a using a single fold binder you maybe able to pry it open slight to get some extra thickness of material through the binder, have a custom binder made which is going to be expensive or adapt a cover stitch binder to work on your machine sort of like what this person done ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YF04w4xKpOI ). You did say the width of webbing but not the thickness of the webbing or the thickness of the material you will be edging or you what it to be a single or double fold binder. kgg Thanks! Lovely video! It is very hard to find folders/binders in France, looking everywhere but no luck yet. No idea where to go to have one made. But maybe prying open a not so expensive one is a good idea. I am in need of a single fold binder, raw edges, not too thick as the webbing is only there to finish the edges of the saddlepad, it shouldn't get too much wear and tear. Quote
kgg Posted February 12, 2022 Report Posted February 12, 2022 If you want to try a inexpensive binder I would search Amazon France for a 2" Single fold binder would. To give you a rough cost the double fold binders in 2" are available in Canada for $15.99.

There translation is completely of! A binder translates into back of chair, or back of book, bookbinding etc. Looking directy on the Chinese website is easier. I didn't think of a 3D printer, that is a good idea! Thanks!

There is a forum Saddles and Tack, but doesn't feel like the right place to me, though I don't think anyone would complain too much about it. Take your pick. Quote

By all means, you're welcome to ask . Thats what this forum is here to do. Although, you may try a new thread like Northmount suggested. 13 hours ago, Northmount said: "How Do I Do That?" But I wonder if horse rugs could be considered as a form of 'tack' ? They are an integral part of horse care/ownership ? And, some rugs do have leather components. But thats for another discussion on another thread HS Quote ' I have a very gweat friend in Wome called Biggus Dickus, He has a wife you know, do you know whats she's called?
