I guess I always wanted to have a compound feed sewing machine to see if these comercial work horses are all they are said to be. I was intimadated by the looks of it, but I have become friends with it. I wish it had a reverse on it, but You can work around that. I have been able to make seat covers for My Toyota Pick-up as well as a pair of jeans. I even had an opertunity to repair the sling on My Great Grand Daughter's back pack. Also, I was able to down load a service mnual that was used by the Navy to guide those that were assembling and repairing equipment used by the Military.That's about it for now, maybe there will be a follow up piece.
The Singer 111W155 is a great machine and I recommend it for all types of heavy sewing ,including leather. I primarily use it for sewing medium to light weight leather goods.

I'VE BEEN USING MY 111W155 SINCE 1982 FOR EVERYTHING IMAGINABLE FROM REUPHOLSTERING STREET RODS TO SEWING PATCHES ON BIKER VESTS. IT'S A TOOL I'LL NEVER GET RID OF, I RECEIVED IT AS A BONUS FROM MY BOSS FOR A JOB BACK IN THE DAY AND I MUST SAY OTHER THAN NOT HAVING REVERSE WHICH I CAN GET AROUND BY BACK STITCHING AND KEEPING THIS OLD THING WELL OILED I'M CONFIDENT MINE WILL RUN UNTIL THE DAY I DIE! GOOD LUCK SELL YOURS, I'M JUST NOW NEEDING NEEDLES FOR IT AFTER ALL THESE YEARS DUE TO BREAKAGE ,THE LEATHER WAS TOO THICK I TRIED , BOB FROM WEST VIRGINIA
