  1. @Spyros Please upload your photos here in the future. 3rd party hosting results in photos disappearing due to people changing permissions, moving files, deleting files, 3rd party hosts changing their rules, 3rd party hosts going out of business, etc. If you look through a number of the older threads here, you will find the pictures missing, and the thread may become useless to all future readers since they won't be able to see what it was all about. If your photo files are too large, reduce their file size to fit. 800 x 600 pixels in most cases is adequate. Smaller files helps people on the fringes of the internet as well, as they don't take so long to download. Occasionally I'm at a location where my download speed is so slow I have to walk away and wait 5 to 10 minutes for the page to load. Tom
  2. Gently warm it with a hair dryer to soften the glue. Heat is the enemy of most glues and contact cements. Tom
  3. @Yanni Moved your post to leather sewing machines. Tom
  4. @vjtp Hi there! Welcome aboard. Moved your post to Leather Sewing Machines. You'll reach the people you want here rather than in Help Wanted. Tom
  5. The scam that has been running for quite some time is to over-pay with a forged cheque/document. Then ask you to pay the shipper, or wire the excess money back to them. When you do that, and then cash your cheque, it will bounce and you will be out the whole amount. Only accept cheques/documents for the actual amount. Cash it before you ship. Don't pay their shipper, etc. After about 2 weeks, when you are sure your document has properly cleared, then ship the object. Tom
  6. If you start at the main page, you will see all the various forums/areas listed along with a description. Pick the ones you are most interested in and have fun surfing. The Marketplace rules are here Have a great day! Tom
  7. @houndsnmules Moved your post to Leather Sewing Machines. Tom
  8. @Jerdav73 Moved your post to the Marketplace. Please review the marketplace rules and add information about shipping. Will you ship, will you package for shipping, who pays shipping, etc. Tom

  10. @Wizcrafts Needs some help. Tom
  11. @mariuspirvu I had notifications of at least 3 posts. When I logged in to see them, they were gone. Then I see we had a server upgrade, so I'm sure they got lost in the transition. There were probably several more posts lost. (Old server must have et them!) Tom
  12. @Ferocios31 Moved your post to Leather Sewing Machines. You'll have a better chance of getting help here. Tom
  13. @Rosch22 Moved your post to leather sewing machines. You'll get more response here. Help wanted requires a moderator's approval for every post, and is more like the classified ads in a newspaper where people are looking for work or have work for someone. Tom
  14. I use Clear-Lac (who made Tandy's Neat Lac). Has a very slight amount of darkening. Anything that goes on layers on the surface stiffens the product. To me, that's not detrimental to coasters. Surface is shiny. As Fred, says above, you could add talc to make it more of a matte finish. I did some with an airbrush in the hot summer sun. Some of the mist dried before it hit the leather surface. Left a matte finish. Tom
  15. @Bert51 I moved this to leather sewing machines as I think that more interested parties will notice it here. Tom
  16. @eddie0225 Please check your PMs. You haven't read it it yet! When you send me your PDF, I will post it for you in this thread. Tom
  17. Use a lacquer finish on both sides, several thin layers, never immerse in water, wipe with damp cloth. Tom
  18. Moved to leather sewing machines. Tom
  19. Moved to leather sewing machines. Tom
  20. Some of these old documents don't scan very well. I tried to enhance them a little without spending a lot of time, but mostly did it so members could download the manual in a PDF without getting pages out of order and in a single download. Thanks for posting the manual in the first place. I'm sure a number of people appreciate it. Tom
  21. Converted scanned images into a pdf file. Singer 45K owners Manual.pdf Tom
