So we just bought a new Sailrite machine with the monster wheel and just got it together and messed around a bit. My first project will be new combing pads and then I hope to get a bit more adventurous. I’ve never sewn before so I’m hoping you all can help me out. I’m sure I’ll have lots of questions. Thanks in advance.

Welcome and good luck.

I hadn't touched a sewing machine since '86 and so far my first 2 projects came out OK. As long as you can follow a line and have a good eye for detail you should be fine. Watch a lot of the vids available on you tube ( I did) adjust the servo motor to slow down to a speed your comfortable with starting out and slow bump it up as you gain experience.
