On occasion I find myself needing to create items for the home
workshop that require a sewing machine.

I am looking for recommendations in what to look for in a sewing
machine that will handle a number of differnet materials (canvas,
cotton, thin leather)

Any suggestions?

Any suggested machines?

Thanks

You in a city with much schmatta trade? If you go to an industrial
sewing machine place they'll fix you up with a used machine like a
Juki that will run forever. (those machines actually have an oil pan).
They often do this for young 'uns setting up as fashion designers.
