  1. Find a friend with a lathe, or go to a machine shop and see what they can do for you. You should be able to figure out the diameter, length, and support pins dimensions from you skiver. You can look at different pictures and scale them to match your skiver to help with the measurements.
  2. @AmericanPatrol Let's not clutter up the forum. When you have additional info or pics to add, just add a post to the original thread instead of creating a new thread.
  3. Old post. I am locking it and archiving it in old/sold
  4. Moved to saddle restoration and repair
  5. I bought one of these too! Their video looks nice, but I could not get mine to work like in their videos. So it sits in a drawer. Bad purchase. See my post third one from the start of this thread.
  6. Don't understand why you would want to argue with a moderator that has some responsibility for where posts should be! But, to each his own! Seems quite disingenuous to me.
  7. No responses so I am archiving this thread
  8. Each to their own, but if we keep stuff under the correct forums, it is much easier to find and to keep up with content that we are interested in. Else you may as well pile everything into one area like I see a lot of peoples' desks. Guess that is the way their mind works. I won't be moving this thread.
  9. I made it on a little metal turning lathe that I have.
  10. How do I do that is wide open territory. Not the place I would go to find info on holsters and gun belts. It's where it belongs.
  11. Title says New Jersey
  12. Moved to saddle restoration and repair
  13. His profile says Newark Texas
  14. @Kyra hasn't been around since Oct 20. But maybe she'll respond to being tagged.
  15. @Kyra hasn't been on this site since Oct 20. Maybe she will respond to being tagged.
  16. @Joe0630 and @mike02130 Did you notice that this thread is old, 2016?
  17. To stop verdigris you have to keep it dry. If you look up the chemistry, you'll find it contains H2O. So how do you keep a belt or other items worn on the body and especially sweaty, hot, humid conditions? That's really the problem you have to sort out.
  18. As always, nice job and fresh ideas!
  19. Just add onto this thread with your new info or requirements.
  20. Moved to Leather Machinery
  21. Moved to leather sewing machines so all the sewing machine fellows can see and appreciate your work.
  22. You should also recognize that the slower the induction motor goes, the lower the torque. And as the speed is reduced, so is the motor cooling. If you don't have experience with sewing leather, you will find that you are likely to want to go to lower speeds than your VFD will run the motor at. At that low a speed, you are likely to let the smoke out.
  23. Moved to Leather Sewing Machines. You'll get more help here.
