280 Older Craftools plus great block holder. I plan to post these on eBay on the weekend but if anyone wants to pick them up now, great.242 Craftool Co USA, 36 Craftool Co, 2 with numbers only plus a few spots for some of your current tools. Most of the tools are color coded. Slight rust and wear but otherwise in good shape. $850 OBO including shipping to continental USA. Paypal is probably best. Questions? Thank you. Pictures are in my gallery page unless I can link them here....

I'm In Love With Leather And Yet I Know Nothing About It.
Wishful replied to valentin's topic in Member Gallery
Welcome and good luck with your endeavor. -
You can also add a speed reducer to the servo motor and improve the power to punch through.

Congrats on your good deal. Google for a singer parts manual for that model and you will find out if that fits or not. Have fun with it.

Rubber Mat Suggestion For Crystal Rivet Setting?
Wishful replied to JerseyFirefighter's topic in Hardware and Accessories
I cannot answer about the rubber but I can tell you I normally use a very thick piece of veggie tan to do the job. Just be sure to face the crystal down into the leather. -
Most older and a lot of newer sewing machines come with clutch motors and go very fast. For leather, it is easier to sew more precisely with a servo motor since you can turn down the speed significantly. Industrial sewing machines are really 3 components, a table, the sewing head and a motor and can all be swapped out. Look on YouTube for videos of sewing with a servo.

I am certainly not a sewing machine expert and there are a lot of variables to what you do and of course budget makes a big difference but for used , a singer 111w155 or consew 206rb are popular. The consew has reverse and a larger bobbin. You will also want a servo motor to slow it down. For new, contact the vendors advertising at the top of the page.

Wishful replied to vericone's topic in Leather Sewing Machines
So it looks like a home made version/adaptation of a speed reducer. A for effort. -
