  1. You're welcome. Appreciate the feedback. I like to help out where I can. Tom
  2. Discussion closed. It has strayed way beyond the OP's question and you guys won't let your personal opinions go. Tom
  3. @Asanka Please read and comply with the instructions and requirements for postings in the marketplace. https://leatherworker.net/forum/forum/70-announcements/ You must list the location, fully describe the condition, etc. Pictures are a great help if you really want to sell it. It is a good idea to put your location in your profile so people know whether you live on Mars or Venus or somewhere else in the galaxy. Tom

    Lot's of people out here! If something gets missed, you can "Report" the item instead of cluttering up another thread. I just happened on this by accident. It isn't guaranteed to catch a moderator's attention. Tom
  5. @TheHollerLW Moved your post to Leather Sewing Machines. You'll get more action here. Tom
  6. https://www.kijiji.ca/b-ontario/skiver/k0l9004?dc=true $3200 and another at $1800 or head only $1390 http://www.techsew.com/machinery/cutting-skiving-machines.html $1554 and up for new machines. Tom
  7. Moved this thread to leather sewing machines. Tom
  8. State your location and shipping information, will you ship, will you pack, what are your limits on shipping? It's a good idea to add your location to your profile. Tom
  9. Here is a crescent wrench by most North American usage. It is an adjustable wrench, I believe originally made by the Crescent Co. Tom
  10. Here is one photo from the Instructables Tom
  11. I have crescent wrench that has a mm scale on one side of the jaw, and fractional inches on the other side. I guess that's to help pick the right box end wrench after you bust your knuckles. Tom
  12. Show us a picture of it on the "T"! Nicely done Tom
  13. My crescent wrenches fit all measurement systems! My pipe wrenches also! Tom
  14. Best if it is in both places. Shipping info is required by the marketplace rules. Tom
  15. Wonderful! Tom
  16. Aussie strander. https://www.tandyleather.ca/en/product/australian-strander Can't see enough of the pink tool. Tom
  17. You can resize your photos so they fit. 800 x 600 pixels is adequate and would allow you to post many photos in the same post. See this thread, lots of options. https://leatherworker.net/forum/topic/15122-how-to-post-pictures-on-lw/?do=findComment&comment=551171 Tom
  18. So I guess you can visualize "the metre has been officially defined as the length of the path travelled by light in a vacuum during a time interval of 1/299,792,458 of a second." I can visualize many things, like electrons (or holes if you like) flowing in an electrical circuit, but to visualize how far light travels in 1/299,792,458 of a second is beyond me. Your definitions for an inch can be easily visualized for a rough estimate. I have no problems with English (Imperial) or American units, nor with SI units. I work in all three. Have taught (for 19 years) engineering/technical folks in both Imperial and SI units for years. Converted many tutorials, lab assignments to SI units as we adopted SI in about 1979. Re-derived formulae using SI units. Have worked in the EPC industry for 20 years using whatever system the client wishes to use. I can flip back and forth at will. You should look at Pipe Tables if you want to see a real mess. No one is ever going to change the dimensions on 2" pipe, nor the threads associated with it. But 2" pipe is called 2" pipe, though I see some people trying to call it 50mm pipe. But that should be 50.8mm pipe! Makes a lot of sense doesn't it! Also pipe thickness is given as Schedule 10, 20, 30, 40, etc. No reference to Imperial or SI. It's just a crazy world. I still think the best conversion system for those without SI Metric abilities is to use 2 rulers, laid side by side. Gives excellent visualization. Tom
  19. 1 m is equivalent to 1.0936 yards, or 39.370 inches. Since 1983, the metre has been officially defined as the length of the path travelled by light in a vacuum during a time interval of 1/299,792,458 of a second. Love these base definitions that nobody can understand! Tom
  20. Buy a ruler with mm and use it to do your measuring. 1" = 25.4 mm. Nothing neat and clean about conversions. From your basic math, round up if the last digit you are concerned with is 5 or greater. Round down otherwise. And if your are trying to convert to 1/16, or 1/8, etc., go back to your basic math and figure it out. Tom
  21. SaddleBags is talking about cutting down the holster pattern. It's a pattern or measurements the OP wants, not cutting down a rifle to fit a pattern! Tom
  22. Hey Andrew, you need photos, selling price, etc. Please read the marketplace rules and comply https://leatherworker.net/forum/forum/70-announcements/ Tom
  23. I copied and pasted it into MS Word, then made it into a PDF. Did a slight amount of editing. 3rd party sites often change permissions, files get deleted or moved, then the thread becomes useless after that point. Motorcycle Grips.pdf Tom
  24. @Stewbeans22You should add your location to your profile so you get answers or comments related to your location. Appears from your IP address that you are near Baton Rouge Louisiana. buyleatheronline is located in Italy. Tom
