Landis D Leather Splitter Refurb.
Northmount replied to LeatherworkingNovice's topic in Leather Machinery
@LeatherworkingNovice Merged both threads and removed redundant posts. Tom -
Just a couple thoughts. You could mount a piece of leather in the shape of a dog, or paw prints, etc. on a piece of mat board, place some of the hair across part of it, or beside the shape you picked, and frame it with a non-reflective glass. Even a swatch of hair over a good photograph would do the trick. Hope this is enough to jog your thinking cells. Loss of a long term pet is traumatic. We won't be getting any more pets. Our cats were very difficult for us to put down when they became ancient and very ill. Tom

Look for saddle skirting. Even Tandy sells some. Most leather suppliers should be able to source it for you. Tom

Howard Imprinting supplies hot stamping machines, foil, type and accessories. Also have some videos. My imprinter is a Howard machine re-branded by Gold Star (who has gone out of business). It is similar to Kingsley and works well. They are expensive. Bought mine secondhand with a couple boxes of napkins, pencils, card stock, foil, etc. for about $300. Had hardly been used. I decided I needed something to be able to hot stamp chrome tanned and other leathers. My son had used a Kingsley when he was a teenager to print business cards. When he quit using it, I finally gave it away. Wished I hadn't! Tom

Northmount replied to CitizenKate's topic in Patterns and Templates
For patterns you should always print actual size as a starting point. When you scale a PDF to fit paper, or to remove borders, you skew the pattern dimensions. Tom -

@IronbridgeKOREA Hasn't visited this site since he/she posted Aug 28. Strange how people can't follow up on their posts when they are supposedly trying to sell something to us! Tom- 15 replies

If everything you make is flat, then a flat bed is all you need. Have you read this post? Tom -

It is a clone of this one. https://www.hewitonline.com/Scharf_Fix_Paring_Machine_and_Spare_Blades_p/tl-091.htm The original has more adjustments than other simple ones like https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Metal-Leather-Splitter-Rollers-Device-Edge-Skiver-Paring-Cutter-Craft-DIY-Tool-/303030069152?hash=item468dffe7a0 I purchased another very similar to this one and have not been happy with it. I built one of my own based on the Scharf Fix Paring machine. It works much better. Tom

When the hole on the back plate is bigger than the rivet
Northmount replied to scrapyarddog's topic in How Do I Do That?
Looks very difficult to get this rivet to spread enough to hold. Looks too short as well to add a bur. Need to get larger diameter rivets. Tom -
@Netsmoreau Moved your post to leather sewing machines where you should get more answers. Looks like you might have the problem mostly figured out. Foot needs to be wide enough or positioned so it pinches the material on the feed dogs to feed properly. Tom
