    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

    Tandy Canada carries the Tanner's Bond , and Barge , most of the store will have them in stock. As they are "flammable" the stores have to follow strict regulation as far as shipping goes

    The 18th century model has an imperial thread and was an ambidextrous design ...the one pictured looks more like the 17th century model when they were still using the metric thread and was design just for the right hand

    The only thing i noticed in that picture , was the tall guy's funny hat ..lol... Any chance you can figure out if the photographer was right or left handed ?

    Here is the same tool used to stich the sole on a boot...nice close up. It is just one stitch played over and over , but still mesmerizing

    I have a Nakajima 341 in good condition, never abused and it runs smother than the Cobra class 26 or the Techsew 2750 i had a chance to play with . I would go with the Juki even at $1600

    They sell Ritza thread...it seems that most of leather workers like it

    Try scissors ... it's the only way those stains will come off

    Mississauga location has 8-9 colors probably in stock . Give them a call for stock availability . Tandy carry Leather Machine Co (Cobra) thread

    These are great irons especially in this size ... sold my set last year and still regret it . A little bit out of my price range now. Good luck with the sale

    I'll give them a call on Monday .

    All those needles are round point. I was hoping to retire the the old 341 and just use the 4500 with smaller needles with an "S" or "LR " point .

    Who sells #19 needles for the CB4500 ? Can't find them anywhere. I need them with an "S" or LR point Thanks

    "Woody" sounds like a good name .

    These are the same chisels as Springfield's ... without the brand but the same "great" quality ...next day delivery too. Or just $10 here if you are willing to wait more that 6 weeks

    Flat Sienna is what you should have bought to make wallets
  17. LeatherLegion
    Send Tandy an email or even call them ..i am sure one of the stores or even the warehouse has a spare one
  18. LeatherLegion
    Not those ones...lol...

    I had those ring custom made locally in a machine shop. Most of the dogs i made collars were over 100lb and the ring held just fine . That being said , they are not meant to be used as an agitation collar , bite work and so on .

    I made collars in the past using these lions I bought from the hardware store...they are drawer pulls...some better quality then others . I am not a big fan of them as they are "kitschy" in my opinion ..but who am I to argue with the customer. The round spots are just upholstery tacks from Tandy Here are some of them
  21. LeatherLegion
    The lions can be found at any larger hardware stores...just do a search for "lion heads pulls"...most of them are screw-back
  22. LeatherLegion
    Sorry , I was a bit vague. Call your local Tandy store. I assume since the Montreal location is closed , Markham or Mississauga location is who you want to call for any alcohol based dies , finishes or contact cements.
  23. LeatherLegion
    Call your local store for Fiebing's dies (pro or regular) and order them over the phone . I am also sure they might be able to answer some of your questions too
  24. LeatherLegion
    I've been making dog collars for a long time...this is an interesting design that I've never seen before
  25. LeatherLegion
    When you say padding , is that some kind of foam inside your soft leather ? I am only using 3-4 oz soft leather for my "padding" nothing stuffed inside ...it is more for aesthetics . If needed , the softer rolled edges are more than enough protection in my opinion
