So I stepped up in machines which has raised some questions. I have been doing marine canvas and upholstery for about six years, a little auto but not much. I had a smaller walking foot machine in my basement, we have grown and have been doing all kinds of trim work out of a shop now. I upgraded to an NC 1508NH recently and love it. It created some questions though. I have a lot more choices in stitch length, needle size and thread than before. What is best or what do you all use for marine vinyl upholstery. I always use a polyester UV thread so thats not my question.
I had been using a needle of 20 (135x17), thread 92, and a stitch length of probably 5mm
The NC is set up with a needle of 24 (123-14), thread 138 and lots of stitch length options
Just curios its a new world with my NC
