  1. The edit option is only open for a limited time. The window is about 2 hours, maybe somewhat longer. It is found in the 3 dots in the upper right corner of the post. Are you able to put your list into a PDF file? If so you can post it in this thread listing what is still available. Else message me a list of what to take out and I will edit your list. Much prefer if you could do the work though! Like most of our members, I'm not around all the time.
  2. As mentioned in a couple posts above, pig skin is great for liners and pockets too. It is tough and durable. If you are making lots of card slots that overlap, any leather starts to get thick, so as above, fabric works well too, though not as durable as leathers. I have used coated polyester. It lasts between 5 and 10 years when carried in your back pocket every day.
  3. Do which? They can reply to posts just like you and I have done here. Or you and they can communicate using the "Message" App built into this site. Go to the top right corner of the window and you will see Click on the envelope icon and follow the screen prompts to create a new message, or to open a message from someone else. Hope this answers your question.
  4. @Kayle When you quote someone, you keep the quote in the box and type your comment in the box below it. What you have done makes no sense at all. Please clarify what you are really trying to do. If you are asking where you can rent, then start a new thread in "wanted". Did you realize that you are commenting on a thread that is 5 years old? Toxo is located in the UK. You appear to be located in Spotsylvania, Virginia, 22553. You should identify your location so you get help that is more specific to your location. This is a world wide forum.
  5. This is kind of cryptic. What are you actually asking or telling us? If you want some dialog, you have to do your part.
  6. If you fellows would quote each other, or tag each other, that should generate email notifications that would help keep you up to date (depending on how you have notifications set). You tag a member by typing the @ symbol followed by the member's username and picking it out of the popup box. Like this: @Judo See, you are tagged.
  7. I would recommend that all queries go through this site, whether as posts, or via the message option. Using email puts your email address out there for all the spam bots to pickup and start harassing you. If you prefer, we can completely remove your email address from your post. There are routines that can quickly rebuild your email address, even though I obfuscated your address.
  8. There are a number of suggestions if you care to search for them. Cornstarch, kitty litter, floor dry, etc. Bury the article in one of these. Keep stirring it around every few hours or days until it has absorbed how ever much it can. With all these suggestions, I haven't seen any confirmations from those that asked as to whether it works or not.
  9. Does this exclude a knife? These are all tools that we use. We don't stuff a hide into a machine and have a belt come out the other end. Some people have lots of tools that help speed up the process. Others have a minimal set of tools. Does it matter if I use a paint brush or an airbrush? They can produce practically identical products. If I call my work area a studio, does that move me into a different class than my basement or garage workshop? If I use a sewing machine versus manual needle and thread, it is hand sewn? If I guide the belt or what ever through the sewing machine, following the stitch line, or I saddle stitch, it is hand sewn? This example will get a lot of feedback. Which side of the bench do you sit on?
  10. I moved it to saddle construction. Not really an accessory item in my opinion even though there are lots of stirrup and stirrup leather designs. @Gaitinggrl77 Keeping you in the loop so you know where your post has gone. Some experienced saddle makers should be along soon.
  11. I moved your post to Saddle Identification, Restoration & Repair
  12. Legal is 8.5 x 14". 11 x 17" is Tabloid or Ledger. Commercial scanners like at Staples or UPS stores handle 11 x 17. Hard to find others for larger pages, but there are some that will do it.
  13. This is a machine type question so I moved your post to Leather Sewing Machines. Perhaps you could add some more information. What needle type and size are you using? What thread size and type? A picture would help visualize what you are describing. The machine guys crystal balls haven't been working for several years, so they really need your help by providing adequate information.
  14. This is a machine type question, so I have moved your post to Leather Sewing Machines.
  15. Appears not to have any interest in following up. Hasn't been back to the site since he posted. @Moscho I am locking and archiving this post.
  16. Split off posts about Making Your Own Dies to https://leatherworker.net/forum/topic/131702-making-your-own-dies/
  17. Split this batch of posts off of Clicker Dies, No Clicker Press? as these posts are about making dies.
  18. Hi Moscho. I moved your post to the Marketplace > Items For Sale > Machinery -- Sewing and Stitching > Used > Tippman Hand stitcher Marketplace You need to fill in a lot of details. Please refer to the marketplace rules here https://leatherworker.net/forum/forum/70-announcements/ Pictures would be great, must state a price in US$, etc. Please update your listing by replying to my post ASAP, else I will have to hide this thread.
  19. Did you realize that thread has no activity for 13 years. The OP (original poster) hasn't been on the site since Feb 2012. I'll tag the member to see if they are still active/alive/connected/interested. @corinowalk long time since you've been around. You have some interest in your saddle from 13 years ago.
  20. I moved your post to Saddle and Tack Accessory Items
  21. You need to quote part of the post, or tag the user so he gets a notification. @szeregowy You have some one interested in your machine. To tag a user, type the @ symbol followed by the username, then pick it from the popup box.
  22. Appreciate your comments and the help you provide to many here.
  23. Thanks Johanna, it is appreciated.
  24. Many burners work at about 1 psi or less. I did work on a potato granule (instant smashed potatoes) dryer that operated at 50 psi burner supply pressure on a 2" pipe. Huge fan and dryer/separator. It sent the granules up a chute to the next level. Had to wear hearing protection around it. You could walk around in the dryer (when shut down). Never saw Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego though.
