  1. Past hour
  2. I'm sure most were in the $200 range. I was thinking about $10-$15 depending on the width. All at Latigo and in the 10-12oz range. I mainly make 6+" leashes out of them, so when they get down to less than the lengths I need to makesay, a 5 footer, they are not really usable for me.
  3. they say spam won ww2, it was shipped everywhere, especially to Russia, where it saved their asses from starvation and turned the war. I love it fried crispy, but i can't eat that much salt anymore. Potted meat is much weirder, as it's a meat spread Pate pate-type stuff.
  4. Oh yeah. I buy my leather by the side and shipping is always in the $20-$25 range. That's just from KY to GA, LOL. My main plan is to put the stuff on Nextdoor first, so I can have them just do a porch pickup. tom
  5. Potted meat is kin to spam, it's the sludge from the bottom of the barrel LOL. looks gross on a cracker. Heck yea fix that old thing up its better than the new ones by far it'll still be cookin when you arent. I have so much to do before snow flies, I have fish to smoke but haven't had the time, plus my wine for the year and my other spirits lol. I built a burner for my kiln but i think it may be to powerful, at 10 psi it shoots a flame about 16" and sounds like a jet engine. Its bigger than my forge burners. They are made from 3/4" pipe; this one is 1" pipe, i didnt think it would be that big of a change. I:m thinking it will heat to fast. I have a backup though i pilfered a burner out of a turkey fryer and hopped it up with a larger orifice. Say hi to pops for me and have a great day!!!
  6. Hi there was wondering if you have any video of it running. How old is it. Can you ship or pickup only thanks. mike
  7. Today
  8. Sharp and clean work.
  9. @Sheilajeanne Spam : "Something posing as meat " ๐Ÿ– It's all lips and a***holes , and tastes great .๐Ÿ˜ @chuck123wapati just turned my cheapie wood fired brazier , with bbq plate, into a gas fired bbq using a 2 ring gas burner from the hardware . It needs a few adjustments here and there, but otherwise works great , I tested it this arvo with a sausage and piece of bacon ๐Ÿฅ“ BBQ for dinner Saturday night with fried rice, and a few beers, of course that old ' bunky ' gas bbq of mine needs some tlc now , another 'round to it' job . I'd like to do a full restore on, it not too many bbq's with cast iron burners around these days . HS
  10. I have sewn close to 12mm webbing with mine. But thats not what it should sew every day. I just played with some parts setting, no other chnages no grinding or welding or so. And stitches become shorter the thicker the material is.
  11. A Singer 144w as it saeems. More or less the "fat brother" of the Siger 111w.
  12. That I a beautiful jacket. I so glad you did not make it, nor take pictures of it and especially glad you did not share it here.
  13. Thank you Sir for the idea . . . I'm beginning to pack my little laptop a lot more than I used to . . . so I'm gonna be looking at something like that . . . not as upbeat . . . but a bag none the less. I just found a small keyboard for it . . . really happy now that I don't have to pack around that long dude I had before. Good job. May God bless, Dwight
  14. Folks like myself . . . you would almost have to give it away . . . as I can easily go pick up my stuff . . . basically no cost because I'm there for multiple reasons. The shipping will be your bullet in the foot . . . except for those who have to have every thing shipped to them. Price accordingly to sell to whichever market you want to. May God bless, Dwight
  15. Looking for help to identify this machine I've been fixing up. (Click on any image to enlarge) Serial number: W940XXX Thread take-up lever is nestled between two rails. Enormous bobbin. Just today I finally used up the bonded TEX 200 that came on it. Stitch length and reverse mechanism, my first time seeing this style. If anybody has pictures of what would attach to this to actuate the reverse, do chime in. So far it makes 6.9mm stitches all the time. The hook safety mechanism, also visible in this shot, had been disabled by a glob of solder, but I scraped that out and it's working now. Another view of the reverse Needle that came with it, Nm 270 narrow wedge. I'm assuming this is system 7x3 (794) Foot lift height. Did these come with a standard presser foot lift? If so, it's missing on this one. The cover plate on the left is mostly empty underneath, except for an oil hole. The needle bar clamp screws are hard to get to. I might grind some material from the needle bar block to allow better access for a screwdriver, and buy some new screws. The knee lift or foot lift arm has been brazed. Odd kinks in it too. I'll leave it since it's functional, but I'd be curious to see what shape these started out as if someone has a photo. Worm gears for the hook, the kind where both gears have a screw that goes into a slot for positioning. Then you slide the gear on the horizontal shaft left or right to effect hook timing. I'd like to purchase a thread guide for the needle bar, you'll note it's missing in this video from the "My First VFD w 3-phase AC Gearmotor" post. vfd-sounds-new-bearings-no-fan__small.mp4
  16. Yesterday
  17. nicely done. kgg
  18. Finished up a couple of gun belts for some really good friends. The old Landis 16 is sewing a beautiful tight stitch. Old Eli over at Landis Machine Co replaced a few parts and dialed the girl in.
  19. Not sure if you're selling just the bellies but I got an email from Wickett & Craig for bellies at $5-$9
  20. That would be great, I have sent you a message!
  21. Assuming they're not all full sides, the simplest way to go would be to price per ft or per metre having discounted from the current price.
  22. That spring likely slides around either the outer presser foot bar or the inner presser foot bar. On my machine, these two bars are different diameters, so that will tell you which one it goes around. Looks too short to be the one that drops in the top for your pressure adjustment. By any chance do you have pictures from before and after? Perhaps someone with a 335 can post a picture to show where the springs belong.
  23. Beautiful, very nice design and execution.
  24. Thanks, I really appreciate the compliments.
  25. Outstanding work! Thanks for sharing with us.
  26. A couple of ways to go about it... Try to recall what you paid and price it at that point; knowing you probably paid less at full retail when you bought it than what it's currently selling for. Look up current pricing from vendors that carry the same, and drop the price by some percentage. Percentage depends on how quickly you'd like to move it, whether you add in shipping, packaging, etc.
  27. Very Sharp!! Great job!
  28. Welcome from SW Missouri! I would suggest a good maul or hammer. Maybe get a starter set of stamps for patterns.
