I'm getting ready to do some sewing myself. I'm just going to make a slip on cover as a trial run, using my wifes machine. If it turns out I'll be looking to buy a walking foot machine.

I was going to buy Front and rear covers from Legendary for my 300.
They were actually having a sale.
A couple of weeks after ordering I called to check on the delivery date.
They estimated about 9 months.
I canceled my order and bought a small cheap) walking foot sewing machine (new)
Off ebay . Ordered vinyl and supplies. Watched some youtube videos and made them myself.
I did make a practice cover with cheaper materials before I used the good stuff.
I'm happy with the results. I don't get tangled up in the saddle blanket cover anymore and there are no rotted foam crumbs on my butt now either.View attachment 716866View attachment 716867View attachment 716868View attachment 716869

What machine did you buy?

I bought a Consew CP206RL.
It's a cheaper version of the sailrite.

I currently have a Vintage Consew 226.
It was a great deal on Marketplace.
Actually a much better machine than the portable.
But I did my first work on the 206RL.

Since you are not concerned with originality and these are not terrible at all, I would say just get them repaired and roll
