Moved your post to saddle restoration and repair. You should also check this forum for the info you are asking for.

@LangDog You have people interested in your press. You should be checking back frequently if you want to sell. You should also post your location so we know whether you on the moon or mars. This is a global forum. It's a good idea to put your location in your profile too.

@jaygeo2020 You should also avoid cluttering other peoples threads with non-related comments. You can post questions like this on your own thread, or report the thread you want fixed, or send a PM to a moderator.

There is a limited time to edit a post. Maybe up to 2 hours. Haven't seen any documentation about it though. If you want to change the price, just tag on another new post to the end of the thread. Members can not delete posts. If a posted item has been sold, just add a post that the item is sold. It may catch my or other moderators' attention, then we lock the thread and move it to old/sold. We can hide posts if requested, or edit to fix a problem, etc. Just report the post and describe the problem.

@Hannamaija Moved your post to Leather Machinery. Help Wanted posts require every post be approved by a moderator.

So Cal is quite a large area. Post your town location so interested parties know your approximate location.

Thanks. It is a good idea to add your location to your profile so it becomes clear to others where you are from and assists with the context of any discussions, and of course when you are attempting to sell or buy.

Chances are it is the lace that is causing it to warp. You can try flattening the lace by pounding it with a flat faced hammer. Be careful not to leave marks. Moistening the back and laying a flat weighted board on it for a couple days could maybe do the job too.
