Hi James, Thank you very much for your offer. I'm trying to work with Art on a trade for his No. 9 at the moment. I just PM'd Aggiebraider to let him know the same. If anything changes I will most certainly get in touch. Again, Thank you so much ! I really appreciate everyone's willingness to help me out

Aggie, if it would help me get closer to a sewing machine I would certainly consider an offer.

Here's what I have ................ GraverMax w/ Foot Pedal Control 4 Hand pieces, (one of them a Hammer Hand piece) 12+ Various Engraving Tool Bits ~ 20 Quick Change Graver Tool Holders Lindsay Graver Sharpening System Fixture Ball Bearing Turntable with 10-32 bolt hole grid provides for nearly unlimited workpiece positioning (this could potentially work well with a home made bowling ball type engraving vise mounted on top, allowing for easier spin maneuvers helpful in scroll work) The fixture was precision made by me and finished with in nitre-blue. FWIW, it reminds me of a giant IKBS folding knife pivot system ; ) Assortment (~ 8) 2" x 2" mild steel & brass practice plates + a few of the standard,black under white, plastic like practice plates Includes complete Original GRS GraverMax Instruction Booklet, along with other documentation regarding correct graver sharpening geometry, sharpening instructions and a plethora of other information I picked this unit up with the intent of learning how to engrave, hoping to add another skill to my knifemaking arsenal. This decision hurts in that the GraverMax is in perfect working order with barely a scratch on it. I don't think I've put more than 4 hours in front of the machine. After careful consideration I've come to the realization that at the moment, I need a sewing machine more than I need an engraving set-up. Here's my offer ...... I want to arrange for some type of trade. All of the equipment described above and shown in the attached pictures below, for a sewing machine with the capability to sew heavy leather sheaths. That means a machine that can sew a stack of leather ~ 3/4" thick. I would prefer a Tippmann Boss but other machines will be considered. One consolation in this trade is the sewing machine has to be in working order. If you think you have a sewing machine you're interested in trading for this, either respond to this post, shoot me an Email or PM. Somebody ..........Anybody................ Please help me out here. The hand-sewing I've been doing the past 10 years has finally caught up to my fingers, wrists, etc., etc. Thanks for taking the time to have a look. I really hope I can find some interest in my offer. :thumbup:
