  1. Just got my hands on this gauge today. If any of you guys is familiar with it and has any details on it would be great.How old would it be ? It works great by the way Thank you Ed
  2. As the title says , i am looking for a speed reducer and a pedestal table Please contact me if you have either or for sale. Thank you ! Ed
  3. What is the min/max stitch length on one of these machine ? Thanks ! Ed
  4. Not available anymore . ..decided to keep it.Thank you !
  5. I am using either Tandy's Craftool Pro Groover with the modelling spoon or the 2 prong stitching irons
  6. Machine is back up and running. Big THANK YOU !!! to #mikesc helping finding the take up arm , and to Dave from Leather Machine Co sending me the small thread tension assembly for free. Thanks again guys !!! Ed
  7. Looked like a Kashtan to me...lol...but then again, it's been 25 years since I've seen one . Nice bag regardless !!!
  8. I did on few card holders , when i used pig skin and i i was happy with the outcome . I only folded 1/2in on this one
  9. How hard would be to replace one of those take-up arms and where would i find one ? I tried to move the machine and i dropped it. The thread tension unit needs to be replaced too but i just bought one on ebay. Any help will be appreciate it Thank you ! Ed
  10. Wax thread might clog up your needle
  11. That's a Ranchero Buckle Blank sold by Tandy ...just visit their web-site
  12. This was done with a Tandy hand press too.
  13. I tried them few weeks ago and they to the same job as most of the irons out there...punch slanted holes equally distanced from each other ...i don't think the price is justified I also used Wuta(owned the older model) , Kevin Lee and Beagle . I own 3 Beagle sets and i am extremely happy. I like the classic design , the size/weight , the very small hole and the price tag. I would like to get my hands on Crimson Hide's irons , even though the hole is a bit larger that i would want and the angle is not as steep as the other ones
  14. I couldn't pass the opportunity on buying a Pfaff 335 ...i didn't need it but the price was right . Here is a picture of the front plate. What can i learn from it.? I know there are some variances ...H1, H2 , PH1, PH2. I will need to get som e needles eventually and some bobbins.. Any help will be appreciated Thanks Ed
  15. Look these guys up https://thread.blackcrowngarage.com/
  16. I hammer down my stitches not only to flatten them but to close the holes a bit too
  17. In the light of Tandy's new pricing strategy, i am pretty much sure ,if they gonna come up with a replacement for their Craftool Pro Stamps, everybody will be impressed...hopefully in a good way.
  18. To me is the distance between the stitching prongs i am using for that particular project, most of the time...so instead of using the dividers for my stitching line i am using my 2 prong pricking irons
  19. I have the Beagle irons in 3mm, 3.35mm and the 3.85mm .I don't think i can ask more from a set of stitching irons...great price , beautiful elegant design, very well made and probably the smallest hole made by any stitching iron out there. Pictured below are the 3mm using #92 thread (.337mm)
  20. I have few made by LW Leather too , all under $30 and i am very happy with them. I guess his CNC is as good as everybody's else out there
  21. The Sailrite will stitch closer to edge without worrying about the leather dropping in the feed dogs slot every time the feed dogs are going down.
  22. Look up this guys for a wide variety of colors in any weight https://thread.blackcrowngarage.com/
  23. This new pricing structure has been in effect in Canada since the beginning of April. Some of the items ,including hand tools are priced even lower than Ebay or Amazon.Affordability combined with the great store experience, makes Tandy the one stop shop , that beginners or advanced leather workers will appreciate even more.
