Missing Strap

I saw someone with case pocketknife in an open case on his belt. It looked like a Cheyenne style holster. Sort of case within a case. I really want to make it, but didn't want re-invent the wheel if a pattern is out there. Anyone seen or made.

I bought this for $5 bucks in hopes it was a usable tool. I was told it was a leather stapler, but I don't know what type of staple it uses. Anyone out there ever see one of these doodads, know what staples it uses, anything? pic posted below.

I am using latigo on straps that see alot of outdoor wet weather. I need to split it, but am concerned it will lose some of its resistance to weathering due to the removal of the darker flesh side that appears to provide this resistance. I would assume that the oils impregnated in the tanning process are throughout and hopefully give that protection, but I am not sure and thought I'd ask. I don't want to shorten the life of the straps by splitting if that in fact will happen. Of course, I know care to the strap is always recommended with oiling and such.

Not sure this is even made??? Osborne....no Weaver......no. Anyone know where I could get one or have one made???

I am wanting to make some cases for Iphone and Ipod touch's. I plan on stitching in clear window material. I wanted to know if anyone knows or would recommend what to use or where to get it. My first thought is to go to an office supply and get a report cover, but I am not sure it would hold up to stitching? Thanks in advance Missing strap

Does your member still have this for sale?? Thanks, Missing Strap

Nothing like doing your homework before you post. Okay found that the Artisan 797 AB NS can handle 207. The Cobra and Artisan sure look similar. I am guessing they use the same body and put their own love inside to make it their own or just a nameplate? I shouldn't spread conspiracy theories. Anyway, it looks like there are machines out there that'll do the job. So which one to pick?? Love to hear from ya!

Okay just saw the Cobra 18. It looks like the ticket and in the right price range. I have read rave reviews on Steve. Winner Winner Chicken dinner. Still would like to see any comments if any has other recommendations.

I have been using an Adler 105-25mo for sewing straps. Typical thickness being sewn is about 16-17oz of latigo leather with a preferred thread size of 207 using a size 24 needle. I am wanting to get into more than just straps and thinking of going to a flat bed walking foot like the Consew 255rb3, juki 1541S, maybe the new Weaver 2670. I know the leather will fit under the presser foot, however It is my understanding that these machines only recommend size 138 thread. I would like help from anyone out there in leather land that knows if any of these machines could handle size 207 or recommend one that does that may be in the general price range of $1500-$3000. I was hoping that someone could say that if you set it up just right that any of these could handle it without constant thread issues. I have talked to some sales people, but I want to hear from users. All recommendations or advice welcome. I added a pic of the straps just to get a sense of some of the work. Thanks in advance.
