    Before actually punching the hole, just press the punch down tight to leave a mark, but not cut. Lift the punch away to see if the mark left by the punch is centered on your markings. Tom

    Possibly your cutting surface is not perfectly flat as well. How do you keep your jacks in sync so they come down evenly and parallel to the cutting surface? You make have to release and cut multiple times to make up for the added tonnage needed. Tom

    @MT Flyrod You appear to be in Missoula Montana area according to your IP address. It is a good idea to add your approximate location to your profile so you can get answers that are more appropriate for your area of the Solar System. Tom

    Looks really great. I have a couple roses I started a while ago but have been distracted by other things that had to be finished. I'd be interested in seeing how you have attached the stem and leaves. Also what material are you using for the stem? I picked up some florists tape and wire for the stems, but from what I can see, yours looks better than that would. Your comments and illustrations would be very helpful. Tom

    Do a google search like this "site:leatherworker.net how much length to add for thicker belt" without the quotes. site:leatherworker.net restricts the search to this site. You can change the search string (words) to refine your search. If a term you don't like keeps popping up in your search, add it to the search string with a dash in front of it (-lazy). One of the posts the above search string found is A refinement to the search string could be remove thicker and add lined. Try different words if necessary to find or narrow the search. Tom

    Take the handle off and make sure it is well supported. Cast Iron doesn't do well when dropped! Tom

    This topic has been posted about a number of times. Have you tried a search? Mathematically speaking, the increase in outer circumference would be 2 x added thickness x pi (3.14). (back to basic math) Tom

    Looks to be a heavily built machine compared to many. Try contacting https://www.facebook.com/pages/category/Product-Service/Jason-Systems-391906050959698/ Sees to be quite a few ads on the internet, from about 2016 and up. So doesn't seem to be a big seller. Tom

    Do you have a manual for your machine? There have been posts here about balancing the forward and reverse stitch lengths on some machines. Try a google search "site:leatherworker.net balance forward and reverse stitch length" without the quotes. You may need to adjust the search parameters by including your machine mfg and model. Tom

    Presser foot pressure too low so the leather lifts a bit at times, loosing the loop so the hook can't grab it? How thick is the leather, hard or soft, thread and needle size? Tom
