I can sew leather like that no problem with my juki DDL-8700 ($600 with table new from queens NY) using a Teflon presser footer. I use heavy thread also, I forgot what weight it is but it’s the denim kind.
@@namcoanyc7777 I have also Juki DDL-8700, and I've used it for leather too. I've done also with teflon presser foot. but if you're doing serous work than better to get a walking foot like Juki DU-1181N, or Juki 1560. and of course 1560 is much better for super heavy leather, specially if you work with a few thick layers
When you say for thicker leather the LU 1508 is the better choice . Could you a give example? I don't know if this would be suitable for me.. how thick was the leather in this video.?
I love this machine
He handled it well. I don't think I could do it without glue to tape! Impressive.
Yeah, he's pretty talented.
You should apply for a patent on that unique design! Amazing.
Did you try suede cowhide on this machine?
No, but that shouldn't be an issue.
I just went with a DX7 - I was worried about the motor. It’s a lot for home sewing
It said it in Decatur,cut sew
Do you think the Juki DU-1181N would sew this leather or is that pushing it?
Pushing it. Only thin, fashion leather is recommended.

Will this sew leather for holsters like 8 to 10 oz
Possibly. But, if you're questioning it, you may want to jump up to the 1560 www.cutsew.com/juki-lu-1560n

The leather sewn with the 1541 in this video is 2mm. We constructed a case with 4mm leather using the 1508.
What size needle do you use on this leather?
