I have a 24 inch arm which is really large, I can't imagine a 30" unless it is computerized.

ConSew that I know are industrial sewing machines...mostly walking foot, which in this application is for heavy fabrics, like drapes or sofa fabrics.
They are a very good and reliable machine.

I used a Consew industrial machine (no walking foot) in my last job manufacturing cheerleading uniforms. It was the BOMB! I loved it, quite a workhorse, and wouldn't mind having another.
