  7. you know I wish I had a laser to cut plastic patterns.... I have bought some from black river and they are excellent. Now I want to have some made with my own design specs and yes I know they do custom work.... just afraid they will end up on ebay. And I have a small clicker press ...can't afford a lot of steel rule dies for small items thanks Lew
  8. I have been there and love it.... Plenty of hats there (Amish People) I have made a couple friends and love to talk to the ones that do more than harness work. I am a little craftsman and managed to spend over 600 dollars last time... would have spent more but was outbid. A few weeks later I saw the items on ebay and well they made a profit! I will be there both days again. It is a real interesting crowd. When they do the lines of equipment you better stand close to what you want to bid on because it is crowded. Bought some leather made a mistake on one. It goes so fast because there is so much... I can't wait to see if there is anything I want Lewis

  23. So I bought a used tippmann boss...and I love it. A couple issues I have is that once in every stitching run it misses a stitch I am almost positive i am pulling down and up all the way. The second issue is that I do get marks from the presser foot no matter how light I adjust it? I am using the popular center foot. I am very thankful to all that take the time to answer and help Lewis
