mcn Report post Posted October 10, 2011 Hey Mark I have one very similar...I'd be more than willing to help you get it in tip top shape the next time you come visit! That sounds good to me thanks. What was it originally used for? I have never seen one before. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MikeCahill Report post Posted October 20, 2011 Bought this at a garage sale for $10. Has anyone ever used one of these? I've got one like that, got to get the blade seriously sharp, and keep it sharp, mine has a tendency to wander a bit and mark the leather, that could be down to my inept setting up, good solid machine should last for ever mike Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ClaireAshton Report post Posted February 27, 2015 I've got four. Got them on Ebay and refurbished them for use on thinner leathers. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LumpenDoodle Report post Posted May 9, 2015 I got one of these off ebay, and not done much with it. How have you set it up for thinner leathers? I got mine working after a fashion, but would love to get more use out of it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
