    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

    Can you please post a more clear picture of the tension discs with the thread ran through?

    You need to back stiitch...just cutting the thread and burn the ends is not gonna work. The Jerk (hook)needle does the same stitch as a speedy stitcher or a sewing machine. There is no reason to use a jerk needle on knife sheats or holsters in my opinion

    glossy mod pudge, gum trag, and water...nothing beats it. Slick when almost dry

    On 2-3oz i usually use an air brush , especially if using an alcohol base dye as i am trying to limit as much as i can the amount of alcohol going into that piece of leather

    I can't find those European shoulders on Tandy's web-site , any chance you can post a link?
  8. LeatherLegion
    It looks like Tandy's buckle looks extremely similar at $1.99...but than again , they are not made in the USA like the other suppliers' so i guess the quality is not the same

    Is this what you are locking for ? Neat Lac

    This one here is very similar

    Try the Tan Kote ...it is resin base , not acrylic . Apply it in light coats . It will allow you to apply conditioners down the road if need it

    If you are in the "neighborhood" you should drop by...it is worth it . The museum is inside of the store now, very clean and well organized . If you are into leather craving you'll love it ...it is a piece of leather history after all . I am not into carving but still found it interesting

    LOL...not a born and raised Canadian ...not a "hokey" guy either

    I like the nylon cutting boards but the marks left by the stitching irons tend to have raised edges. When you slide veg-tan on top of them they will leave marks . The puck still has a smooth surface after used .

    I just tried a hokey puck the other day . It is firm enough to give me a clean cut on the back of the lather but soft enough not to damage my stitching irons .

    MDF board works great.

    As of yesterday ,the Mississauga store still had few Tokonole left in stock.... a bit over $13 . It looks like it's gonna be a regular stock item

    Nothing that i would sale right now...sorry

    Try the Eco-Flo Waterstain Slate Gray. Make sure you shake the bottle , work it in with a sponge , let it dry , buff it and apply some Golden mink oil. It's not a dye but you might get the result you are looking for

    Try Bradshaw steel rule dies . They are in Cambridge ON.

    Buckles

    LeatherLegion replied to kennh's topic in Old/Sold

    Extremely interested

    As far as i know there is no such thing as "oil tanned" . Oils are usually added after the tanning process and have nothing to do with the process itself . I am curious to hear other opinions

    Just got a bag of 6 of them yesterday from the Mississauga store
  24. LeatherLegion
    Now that it warms up a bit , all those "water based" liquids should be back in stock
  25. LeatherLegion
    They ship it through Purolator ... extra fees for flammables. You just have to place your order over the phone and they'll give you the details. The water base contact cement is probably the best next thing
