So far just been doing what I can with visors that require binding on them. I am just wondering if you guys who use a binding foot for visors have any opinions advice or leads on where to purchase.

Thanks Guys

I do a lot of binding with a Sailrite swing away binder (still not very good at it) but the tight corners and any inside curves on a visor are going to give you a run for your money. A visor may be too thick to go through a binder unless you have one made specifically for that purpose.

Lol yeah @Revv Up I tried those swing away binding attachments a few times and just went back to doing it by hand.

@BigRig Ive always done visor binding by hand. Just takes practice. Go slow and just focus on keeping the binding folded over the equal on both sides.

@John, @Revv Up ,

Unhappy easter to me guys And here I thought I was going to find a tool to just rip these off ha ha

The swing away's are good for carpet, I couldn't imagine something stiff like a visor would work very well. The binder comes into the needle at 45% . You might want to try the style that sits at a 90% to the needle, it might be easier to make an inside turn. This style https://www.ebay.com/itm/Industrial-Sew ...
