Don't leave me out!

Hey everyone. Years ago I came across some "can coolie" kits on clearance at Tandy.
They included a small diameter elastic type lace. Does anybody know what I'm talking about?
And does anybody have a source?
-
I'd like to see the pic Tina!
-
Looks perfect to me. Where did you get the hardware and that light?
-
Super looking seat! How did you not dye the parts that aren't dyed?
-
Awesome job! Is that real "atmosphere" on them boots?? Don't get any on the carpet lol
-
Hey Ol, where might one find some pics of better work and horse and buggy bridles? That's exactly what I'm looking for! Thanks

Never give up!!

What is the ABOK exactly?

Hey bricew74. I don't know how everyone else would do it, but I made a pvc tube for storing my daughters goat tying ropes. Get the smallest diameter that they will fit in and a glue cap for one end and a male adapter and a threaded cap for the other. The whole thing cost less to make than any cardboard tube I could find and its pretty much indestructible.. Of course I already had the glue though. I have seen pvc tubes on the ups truck with labels on them my ups guy said he thought it was fishing poles inside. Anyway if your not worried about the extra cost for being over 36" you might try that.

Hey Tyler, Silverama.biz looks like they have what you need. As far as attaching it, was just glued on, but the rawhide should have covered a small amount the edge. My daughters fell of hers a while back, and the glue spot is still on the back of the concho.

Thanks oltoot I tried that, but it didn't turn up much.

Beautiful bag! What kind of leather did you use? Is it all the same leather?
-
Where would I find that bc? When I google it comes up things from file crop..

Actually no Trevor. I have attached a pic of a Halter with an English chin. The nose of this one is also rolled like I am referring to. Thanks for the reply Trevor.

Hello everybody, does anyone know of a post on here about how to do rolled edges? I'm referring to the edge like on an English chin of a leather halter, or the piece that goes across a set of blinders. I have even seen them on some purse straps. Also I do not have a mechanical creaser, so is it even possible?? Thanks in advance!!
-
Nice Job! Was that hand sewn or with a machine?
Thanks. Strap necessarily make.

I backed the pressure off six complete turns and it was still leaving a black mark, turns out to be oil running down and ending up getting on the bottom of the foot and staining the leather.
Hey Tree Reaper, did you not pay extra for the table extension??

Hey everybody, I am going to purchase a new sewing machine, and I think I have it narrowed down to a Cobra 4 or the Cowboy 4500. They are pretty similar in price. Can someone please help me with the differences, pros, cons, etc.
Pretty big investment to be feeling sorry about later. Thanks in advance!

Is my pattern supposed to shrink and go away when I am beveling? What am I dong wrong?

Hey everybody, I gotta feelin that there's alot of ya headed out Wickenburg way, but I just wanted to get a couple opinions since I'm snowed in today and in the mood to go out to the tack room/ shop and work a little. If you had to start over with your tools, and you already knew you get what you pay for, and you were going to buy a new Barry King mallet, and you could only afford one for now. Which one would you buy? Mallet or maul? What size? Tapered or untapered? Also you have a case of carpal tunnels in both hands, so maybe heavier than normal, or lighter?
-
Hey Dave I am confused. Do you let it dry out and then re wet it? How do you recase with the backing on it?

Have to agree with the general consensus. They are great people! First hide I bought came in wrong because the sample was labeled wrong. They took care of it right away, and that was right after the earthquake! Highly reccomend.
