New Custom Made Stitching Stand

Recommended Posts

I did a trade out with a carpenter friend of mine . I did a really cool seat for his motorcycle and he built me this beautiful piece of mechanical coolness. I am so stoked to use this on my next few projects. The beauty of this is I can sit in my comfy chair and work off of the stitching stand while lacing and stitching. Let me know what you guys think of it.

What an elegant design, I loved the incorporation of the bike parts as well. Looks more like a piece of furniture than a work item.

No wonder you're pleased with it!

Who ever built it did a great job except for one thing. The jaws should be straight all the up. With it just touching down from the top i think when you use your awl what ever your sewing is going to flop right over.

Thanks guys, This thing really did come out a lot nicer than I thought it would . All I gave my friend was a picture of this old 1800's stitch stand that i found online years ago. It stands about 36" tall which is perfect for me when I'm sitting in my drafting chair. I had him round the jaws so that there would be no way of getting pinch marks in the pieces i'm working on and it work perfect for my use.
