  1. Fixed broken link in original post. https://leatherworker.net/SimmonsHolster.pdf Tom
  2. @McBeal Moved your post to Leather Sewing Machines (even though you are using canvas). You'll get more input here. Tom
  3. Because you posted in Help Wanted, which non-members of these forums may post in. Help Wanted is generally for hiring help, or alternately, people wanting work post here too. Then almost all replies to the post also require approval. Moved your post to How Do I Do That. Tom
  4. @ABHandmade Top notch as always. Great job. Tom
  5. He hasn't been back to this site since he posted it! @Saleigh You still around? Tom
  6. Wizcrafts has explained why stitch length changes with the thickness of the leather. https://leatherworker.net/forum/topic/74979-stitch-length-changing/ @KennethM Moved your post to leather sewing machines. Tom
  7. @nokiddin Hi. I see your are from the Winnipeg area according to your IP address. You might like to add your location to your profile. Here are a couple wallet liner patterns that have a piece in the middle that adjusts as you open wallet flat and when folded. I don't recall where I collected them from so can't credit the originator. Probably found them here on Leatherworker.net. I trace the pattern onto a manila file folder and cut it out, then assemble it (with staples) to make sure the parts fit and operate correctly. You may need to change the distance between the slots and the length of the tabs that fit into the slots. Once I'm sure of the dimensions and fit, I trace onto pigskin. I find pigskin thin enough and quite durable for wallet liners. Tom Walletpatterns.pdf Liner_photo.pdf
  8. OP appears to be located in the Denver, North Carolina, 28037 area according to the IP address. @offerd15 Some photos might assist you in getting some interested parties. Tom
  9. @AMTN85 please read and comply https://leatherworker.net/forum/forum/70-announcements/ Tom
  10. Or grind the end to round instead of pointed. Continue down the sharp side a little so that no sharp spot is pointing up when you reach across the bench and catch your wrist! If you buy a draw gauge from member Bruce Johnson, he will supply it with the blade already trimmed like this. Tom
  11. 800 x 600 pixels is a really good size for here. Tom
  12. You need to provide more information and a picture or two. Please read the marketplace rules and comply. https://leatherworker.net/forum/forum/70-announcements/ Tom
  13. @GreyMatter From your IP address, I see you are in the Youngstown, Ohio, 44509 area. Would be a good idea to add your location to your profile so people/vendors in your area can comment and assist. Tom
  14. @Melross Moved your post to leather sewing machines. You'll get more responses here. Tom
  15. @True Partner Saddlery You should add your location to your profile so people know where to refer you to suppliers. Check out http://www.longviewleather.com/search.php?search_query=beveled+rings&Search= But I see from your IP address you are in the Alpharetta, Georgia, 30004 area, so would probably like something closer to you. Longview gets some of their hardware from Weaver. Tom
  16. @JRWSADDLES moved your post to marketplace. Please read https://leatherworker.net/forum/forum/70-announcements/ and comply. Add photos, etc. If your photos are too large, shrink the files so they will fit. 800 x 600 pixel resolution is adequate and will let you post maybe 100 photos in one post. Tom
  17. Fixed it for you! Tom
  18. Each piece once dry or mostly dry would have to go back in exactly the same order and orientation otherwise there would be gaps in the stack. I don't think disassembly is a good idea unless you were going to start over, soaking the rawhide, etc. Tom
  19. No experience here, but ... I would try baking it at a moderate temperature as that would dry it out and harden the rawhide like it does leather. I would also keep tightening it up as the moisture dissipates so the stack stays compressed as it dries. Tom
  20. OP is located in Calgary Alberta. Tom
  21. Too much oil or wax before applying acrylic or lacquer finishes from adhering, especially acrylic. Apply the waxes after applying a finish. Tom

  23. @Britmastersaddler I notice you have several ads/posts recently selling stuff in the Marketplace forum. Please review the requirements at https://leatherworker.net/forum/forum/70-announcements/ and comply. You need photos or very good descriptions, price, shipping information, location of goods, condition of goods, etc. Tom
