    Contains good info about this type of machine that others may find useful. So we don't like to delete threads like this. Tom

    You can reduce your file size (resolution) and be able to post many photos in a single post. 800 x 600 resolution is adequate. Tom

    If it is manually oiled, you should oil the machine everyday with heavy use. It it sits for days without any usage, should oil it before use, unless it is only for a 5 minute job. If so, you can stretch out oiling somewhat. Tom

    You need to start with an approximate diameter that you would like to end up with. Calculate the circumference = 3.14 x diameter. Divide the circumference by your stamp length 0.8 mm. (pretty small stamp) Round the number up or down to a whole number. Use that as you new circumference. Divide by 3.14 to get your new diameter. Tom

    OP appears to be in Maine USA according to the IP address. It would be great if members could add their location to their profile. Tom

    @jsangl Very nice work. If you resize your photos, you will be able to upload many more at a time. 800 x 600 pixels is adequate. At that resolution you could add maybe 100 photos in one post. Lower resolution photos are good for people that live on the fringes of the internet with slow connections. One lady I know would open her webmail and go do something else for half an hour or more while it was loading her email. Tom

    Rather than stuff a bunch of off topic photos into this thread, do a google search "site:leatherworker.net stitchless" without the quotes. You will find a number of photos as well as some distractors like a triangular coin purse! Tom

    @geordieracer Very nice work. You can resize your photos to a lower resolution and be able to post many more at a time. 800 x 600 pixels is quite adequate for viewing here. Saves on upload and download time for people with slow network connections too. Tom

    I've seen a purse and a knife sheath done this way. The people called it stitchless. Tom

    Happy I could be of some limited help and that you were able to solve the problem. The purse looks great! Tom

    Here are a couple more where lining was included in a google search. First used upholstery velvet. Second one gives info on selecting the lining. http://leatherworker.net/forum/topic/53350-wet-formed-cue-case/ http://leatherworker.net/forum/topic/14305-dragon-protection/ Tom

    I may have reversed the sort to put oldest posts first. Another good way to search is to use google and restrict the search to this site by including "site:leatherworker.net" without the quotes as part of the search string. I do remember there being something about lining the tubes from my browsing a few years ago. It might have been on JB's website too. Not sure. Anyhow, you're not so stupid. And more experience will help make searches work better for you. Google's search engines and databases are indexed far better than this site's so I often use it. More powerful, more money to play with! Tom

    See the following posts I found by searching for "cue case" (including the quotation marks to avoid all the other kinds of cases). Many posts by JohnBarton are quite informative. Tom

    Hey Trooper, can you upload your photos again? They seem to have disappeared for some reason. Thanks. Tom

    Hey @Ebbtide please upload your photos so we can all see them. Or fix your account with photobucket to allow third party hosting. Thanks. Tom

    Hey @RiverCity can you post the photos here or fix your photobucket account to allow third party hosting. None of your photos are visible to the rest of us. Tom
  18. Northmount
    Try a search. I found this one after a couple minutes. Tom

    @Bolanca Someone in China will start mass producing it and selling in large quantities on Alibaba. Tom

    Reduce the photo size to 800 x 600 pixels and you will have tons of space to load more photos. You can also make additional posts to this thread rather than starting a new thread. Tom

    Lots of threads here about burnishers and making your own. Try a search for burnisher. Tom

    Ya, you can ball up quite a mess under the feed plate in the bobbin area. And if you force it when it is jammed up, more damage than just having to clean up the mess. Safety clutch on some machines might save you, but just don't ever do it. You can turn backwards just a little if you were trying to place the needle in the right spot so you can reposition the work. But that is all. Tom
  24. Northmount
    The hook or shuttle can only pick up the loop in the top thread going in one direction, so yes, wheel must always turn only one direction. As above, use reverse or turn around to back stitch. Tom

    Please add your location to your profile. You may get more responses to this and future posts from people in your area. And of course, we like to see where everyone is from. Tom
