€ 17,91 15％ Off | Swing Away Adjustable Plain Raw Single Fold Binder For Industrial Sewing Machine
https://a.aliexpress.com/_m0elDI1I looked at the Suisei binders Mack Workshop uses but they’re hard to buy and about thrice the price for not much difference. Although I’ll probably end up getting one as I find out this cheap one is a bit meh.

I've never done Discord but I'd be keen to have a look.
Edge binding is the bane of my existence, I've ordered an attachment for the new machine and can't wait for it to show up. Supposedly the neatest way to do it is folding it open and sewing the edge on before folding it over and giving it a top stitch, but I've never had the patience for that.
@Chopsicle inspired me to try (what I later discovered to be) an overcasting foot and that helped a lot. It pushes the binding up against the edge of the fabric and the stitching stays straight too.
