SOLD!

They have code numbers on them. Some have more clearly identifiable uses on them for example: "Lock Stp" or "Gusset" , Most just have code letters and numbers. I noticed one set (5-6 pcs I think) was for a "3-way back pack" but have no idea if it is complete without a master list. Hence the "value auction". It brings what it brings. They appear to have been jumbled together without regard to ever matching them up again. The key would be to creatively identify potential uses and just use them for your particular need. At this price, kind of hard to go wrong even if many found their way to the recycle bin. I was told that some of these exceeded $200 each new. Even at $100 each you can do the math. I figured someone that does bags, purses, luggage, wallets, wristlets, might know what they could be for and wanted to give every financial incentive to drive to come and get them. Thanks for asking.

Yeah I know. Just a lot more work than I had ever imagined. It's a deal for someone. I'm a leather crafter, not a die salesman. I want my garage space back! If they don't sell, I'll continue to list individually. Stay tuned!

I was not the one listing many of the purse sets. Different seller. I have a few listings now, but decided I need my space faster than I can sell them separately. ) It will be interesting to see if and when they move. ) Thanks for looking!

You may really benefit from this auction. I am selling 550 clicker dies from closed Hartmann luggage plant. It's in Nashville TN so you would have to come and get them, but will likely sell low. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=251232155267

American Alligator 1911

Craigslist & Ebay! I search it everyday. A Seller by the name of "southerngent" on ebay has some nice American alligator in FL. All gator is pricey so prepare your work before you cut. Dont be confused with caiman or nile crocodile. They are NOT the same! American alligator bellies are the only way to go. -
I also have a ton of #99 size thread!

7-8oz... Same as I use for any standard holster. The exotic just adds decorative style and durability. -

Thanks! Each is so different. Scales on a gator is like a fingerprint. -

Machine runs perfectly, complete with table, 110v clutch motor, bottom feed. This has the metal bottom wheel, not the stone version. The metal feed wheels work best. $700 you pick up in Brentwood TN 37027 (10 miles south of Nashville) Any questions please call me at 615-482-72three three. I can make myself available for your shipper or freight truck but really not prepared to palletize or carry to any local. Best, Rob

Tanners Bond Contact Cement Changed Again? Arrgh!
mmirob replied to mmirob's topic in Leatherwork Conversation
Good stuff to know. Question about the Renia product and the Master MULTI: Does the glue product activate by heat for example would the glue separate or soften if left in a hot car? -
Did this sell?

Where do you buy it? Price ? Why is it better or best? -
Tanners Bond Contact Cement Changed Again? Arrgh!
mmirob replied to mmirob's topic in Leatherwork Conversation
Dont know the answer to the question on thinner but this is not a government regulation but simply a tandy "change" in product attempting to be "green" I called barge, and they still make their Barge product (red & yellow can) just not the proprietary tandy formulation. Masters still makes their product. Government did not force any reformulations. Remember we heard the same thing about Neat-lac. Yet it is readily produced under a different trade name. -
American Alligator 1911
mmirob replied to mmirob's topic in Gun Holsters, Rifle Slings and Knife Sheathes
No disrespect taken. ) As long as the compression from stitch line is tight to the front panel, and from the front panel to the veg tanned below, there is little room for movement... provided of course the the veg tanned below is formed tight to the pistol. American alligator is indeed expensive, and not the hide you want to use without some experience in full coverage builds. On an ancillary note, I find that using the smaller (and thinner) hides (4-6 foot)are better at showing the boning lines. Perhaps more noticable on the 1911 since the lines are readily recognizable. However the larger gnarly scales have their own unique beauty and seem to appeal equallly to many.
