WTB: Looking for Used Heavy Duty Leather Sewing Machine

I'm looking for a used heavy duty leather machine. I do some leather work and have been hand sewing all of my holsters and gun belts. I'm looking for a good machine that will sew over 1/2 inch. I don't want anything made in China.... If any one has a machine in good working order, or knows of a business selling out please email me at snipped-for-privacy@airmail.net.

Thanks.

I am sorry to not have a link to give you, but I know I have seen a few places on the web that specialize in used industrial machines that have quite a few for sale. I'm sure if you googled for "reconditioned industrial sewing machine" or "used industrial sewing machine" or something like that, you'd find one.

Also look on the "411" sites and type in category of business. A lot of the industrial machine dealers do not have websites, but you can track them down through their phone listings. That way you can choose a dealer closer to you and save on the shipping - an important detail (especially when considering parts and repairs). A reputable dealer will want you to send samples of what you sew the most as well as details on thickness. They will also ask you to send the threads that you are planning to use. (This is for them to most accurately tool the machine to your particular needs.) Cynthia

Indeed: there are quite a few on Ebay UK at the moment.

I tried to email you with a possible solution at the email address you advertise and it bounced. If you want to email me I will give you the detail.
