I get frequent callers wanting just that.
I want to know how large & extensive their project would be?
Is it one little leather pouch? is is mass production?
is it a 100X25 tarp?
Is it a tent? Is it a mattress cover?
How many are they planning to make?
Industrial is go faster and maybe with a walking foot pull stuff more effectively.
I have clones that will do a few projects and do them well - set up the bobbin case ti handle the thread - set up the pressure on the presser foot to handle what you are doing. Use the right needle & thread
mostly use your head - if you are getting burrs, stars in the throat plate, bent needle shaft or broken needles you will need an industrial walking foot machine if you do much of it. http://leatherworker.net/forum/index.php?showforum=29 that, too
