  1. @Mark842 The machinist will have to turn the piece, then mill the surface similar to how they mill or broach splines. Your splines look like they have about a 5 degree offset or slope. If straight cut will suit you, you may be able to save a couple dollars. It's likely not worth the time to set up a CNC program for a one off. Take the part in with you and tell them you want them to make a new one. Here is a web page that will explain some of what you are looking for. Tom
  2. @Tc1388 Take the belt off and turn the machine by hand to see if it makes any unusual noise. With the power off and the belt off, turn the motor pulley and see what you hear. Try it without pressing the pedal, and with various amounts of pressure on the pedal. When searching for the location of a noise, you can take a short length of garden hose (or similar), put one end against your ear, and move the other end to check locations the noise is coming from. You don't need to press the open end of the hose against the machine, just close to it. It helps to eliminate other noise distractions and home in on the source area. Tom
  3. See this post for info on resizing photos to fit site restrictions. https://leatherworker.net/forum/topic/15122-how-to-post-pictures-on-lw/?do=findComment&comment=551171 Also make sure you have the right file type. jpg is most common., Tom

  8. You're welcome. Appreciate the feedback. I like to help out where I can. Tom
  9. Discussion closed. It has strayed way beyond the OP's question and you guys won't let your personal opinions go. Tom
  10. @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
  12. @TheHollerLW Moved your post to Leather Sewing Machines. You'll get more action here. Tom
  13. 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

  15. 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
  16. Here is a crescent wrench by most North American usage. It is an adjustable wrench, I believe originally made by the Crescent Co. Tom
  17. Here is one photo from the Instructables Tom
  18. 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
  19. Show us a picture of it on the "T"! Nicely done Tom
  20. My crescent wrenches fit all measurement systems! My pipe wrenches also! Tom
  21. Best if it is in both places. Shipping info is required by the marketplace rules. Tom
  22. Wonderful! Tom
  23. Aussie strander. https://www.tandyleather.ca/en/product/australian-strander Can't see enough of the pink tool. Tom
  24. 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
