Sun exposure vs Strength
by: Keilman Marine Upholstery

Here in the mid west we have hot summers and sometimes harsh winters. We may see 5-9" of snow and sometimes ice. So strength is important. I am going to give Weathermax a try and see. Also another question? Do you find that compound feed walking foot machines do an adequate job vs the old fashioned walking foot machines ( Singer 16-188 and similar?)Thanks Mike

Mike I think I can speak for 99% of fabricators. Compound walking foot machine are the way to go. I use Consew 206 - rb machines.
You will be happy with the strenght of the weathermax. For ultimate strength you might look at Top Notch.
