I can probably make another video , or post few pictures as i probably still have the dies even though i haven't used them in years -
A pair of scissors will remove any oil stains on leather, especially Cosmoline stains

Tipmann Boss, Cowboy Outlaw, Weaver Cub
LeatherLegion replied to thenrie's topic in Leather Sewing Machines
I used both the Outlaw and the Boss...The Outlaw has a longer arm if you need the space .They are both great machines, easy to carry around , especially if you do shows. Great customer service from both companies -

Rivets with large swivel rings

I had mine custom made , the o ring is about 1.5in and they are screw back . I used them exclusively for dog collars . Anyone with a machine shop can make them for you -
Some sets will give 6's that can be used as 9;s ...or the other way around and they will match each other

Does your letter set has "6"s and "9"s ?...or just 9's that can be used as 6's as well?

The couch might be actually made out of split leather that has a synthetic finish. I think that's what's peeling off

Make sure the motor pulley or the belt doesn't touch he cover

The color is off too. Tokonole is white....yours looks yellowish...maybe it's just the picture though

Under the burnished surface , you still have a "spongy" substrate . If you don't have a high fiber density on the flesh side , you can't really do much about it

How to answer the question "How much is it?"
LeatherLegion replied to Leatherinspire's topic in Marketing and Advertising
Welcome to the board . Interesting and helpful read -
Quick Googke search came up with this

I have been using the "S" point exclusively for the longest time in my Cowboy CB4500 and Boss . For anything smaller than #138 thread i am using the LR needles in my Nakajima 341 and Singer 17-30

I have the same press but in green. ...i think i posted some pictures way back. You have to turn the round plate to adjust the height...very fine thread so it's a bit of work , but once you set it and use the same dies , you are good. The press is extremly heavy and has to be bolt it down...i have mine bolted to the floor . I also had a Lucris MA III and the green one seems to have more umph The plate's diameter is arounf 11in . Way better option than one of those hydraulic shop presses in my opinion. If it doesn'y have any cracks and everything moves smooth it'll do the job just fine Hope this helps Eddie

Bought a left/center smooth foot set few weeks ago for a 111 type machine. I had to drill a bigger hole in the left foot to make it fit. All good now
