There is no limit that I am aware of. I have seen posts/threads with many more attachments/photos than you have posted. You should reduce your file sizes further. 800 pixels in the longest dimension is quite adequate. Try again later. There may be something else at play here with the device and or browser or ISP you are using.

@RVacc If your files are too large to post here due to file size restrictions, you need to resize your files to fit. Follow this link for some helps and suggestions. https://leatherworker.net/forum/topic/15122-how-to-post-pictures-on-lw/?do=findComment&comment=551171There are lots of Apps, software, and online tools available on the web, or even built into your device to enable you to reduce your file sizes. 800 pixels in the longest dimension is quite adequate. Smart phone screens and many monitors don't display high res files in high resolution. People that live on the fringes of the internet appreciate smaller file sizes and high res photos may take from 10 minutes to hours to download.

Downloads just fine. Check your browser and antivirus settings. Try downloading during off peak hours in your area.

Moved your post to "wanted" in the marketplace forum.

Sounds like you used way too much xylene. It has to dry out before you can do anything with it. It also removed the natural oils and any waxes from the leather. So you will have to try to carefully replace them. Look up conditioning leather. If you add too much oil, it will be soggy and a mess. Waxes pretty much stay on the surface and you buff off the excess. You can't buff off excess oil. My guess is that maybe after it dries out, you should apply a neutral shoe polish (wax), warm it up some, let it soak in for several hours, then buff it. After that, you could use a coloured shoe polish that might help restore the original colour, or close to it. As I say, it's my GUESS!

A counterweight's purpose is to reduce vibration. The counterweight is placed 180 degrees opposite to the unbalanced weight.

Moved your post to leather sewing machines. This is where the machine guys hang out, so is much more likely to get their input.

Merged your 2 posts. There is no need to post the same or related materials in multiple forums. Let's keep it all together.

Moved your post to Leather sewing machines. Help wanted requires moderator approval for each post. And you'll get more visibility here where the machine guys hang out.

It jammed, so does it have a safety clutch? If so, you need to reset it. Can't do anything with the timing it it is tripped.

You need to quote or tag the member so they are more likely to get a notice. Tag by typing the @ symbol followed by the member's username and pick it from the popup box. Like this @CdK you have query, see above.

Part of it is the burnishing from your stamping, and that is what you want. Over a few days the NFO will even out as it migrates a little. I'm always cautious adding NFO. Light applications. Like dye, it is easy to add more, not easy to take it back out.

Yes, state it is free. Some comment about shipping or meet up.

According to the IP address, he appears to be in New Jersey. @MDeBo Should add your location to your profile so you get answer relative to your location.

Give the fellows some time to see your request. They aren't sitting in front of their devices waiting on you. This is a worldwide forum, 8 hours isn't enough to go around once!

You could tag Uwe to see what is available. There is another recent thread about add-on tables. @Uwe

You have the answer, but I moved your post to leather sewing machines anyhow.

Even though this machine is not a leather sewing machine, I have moved your post to leather sewing machines as this is where the sewing machine guys hang out. You'll get others comments.

I've seen this comment before, but after thinking about it a little that doesn't make sense. If so the whole piece should turn blue/black as the iron would be equally dissolved through out the water, not in little globs (unless old pipes with rusty scale flaking off).

@Jassu "I tried the machine and noticed that the needle does not move when I press the pedal" Does the motor run? Does it buzz or make any noise? Does the belt slip? Can you turn the sewing machine pulley by hand with the belt off? Does the motor pulley turn easily with the belt off? Is the sewing machine seized up? You need to provide more information - tell us what you see and hear. Then we can help you. We need at least the answers to the above questions. A little video saved on YouTube to show what the machine does would be a help as well. If you test each question, and answer it to yourself, you will be able to point to the area that has a problem instead of just saying the needle doesn't move.

From Google Translate: First of all, I apologize for the typos. I come from Finland, and English is not used every day. I bought a used juki DNU-241 H sewing machine. I tried the machine and noticed that the needle does not move when I press the pedal. Where could you start looking for a fault? Thanks in advance for the answers. It's completely pointless to ask about Finland, because the seamstresses there are such fierce competitors that they don't want to help/advise others. I think it's really stupid, but what can you do. Please use English - That is the default and expectation on LeatherWorker.net. Google Translate works fairly well, not perfect.

Dye will only hide it if it is the same colour and density or darker.
