I have several veg tan kangaroo skins that I no longer need. Whiskey in color they're right at 2-2 1/2 ounce. They average around 6.5 square feet. They are all clean, would make excellent wallet interiors or lace. I'm asking $90 each and $10 to ship. Buy more than one shipping will remain $10. I have 20. PayPal for payment. Thanks. Located in Alpine Tx.

Class 4 machine bobbin not staying slot
cody1200 replied to cody1200's topic in Leather Sewing Machines
Uwe this is the groove right where the bobbin goes in and where the thread comes out. This list you talk of make sure and put me on it!!! The problem was that I loosened the pressure foot tension while sewing thin leather. Then I was stitching skirts and I believe the leather was moving a bit and was causing things to hang up. Tightened the presser foot up and it worked next time I will work on it longer before heading to the forum so I'm not black listed sorry uwe. -

Don't worry I figured it out -
Hello I'm having trouble keeping the bobbin thread to stay in the groove. Also it seems the thread from the top side doesn't make it all the way around the shuttle then pulls up tight and snaps my needle just about every time. And I do have the thread in the bobbin threaded the correct way. Thanks

Hello I was wondering if any of you had any tricks at photographing open wallets I've tried blue painters tape and it wasn't sticky enough I'm afraid to use something that may leave a mark on the leather. Any suggestions?

Hello, my question is about after you get everything cut out and your middle layer in place. How do you get the top layer to stay put after it is sewn on? Here are some pictures of what I mean. What I did on this one is glued the carved piece let it dry then glued it again and stuck it on the other piece while it was semi wet still.

Try using a rawhide maul they seem to absorb the blow and deaden the sound. -

Hello I have been having trouble with buying belt buckle sets that include buckle, keeper, and tip. I buy 1 1/2" buckle sets and cut my strip 1 1/2". The problem comes along when you put it all together and the strip is to wide for the keeper and the tip. So to fix this I either take a 1/4" off the strip or just tapper down the last 8 inches or so of the belt tip. My question is what do you normally do? make a 1 1/2" belt actually a 1 1/4" belt or what? thanks

Hello, I am looking to start braiding leather wanting to make jewelery and belts. I bought the book leather braiding by bruce grant. I am not quite sure on how to make the thongs. The book isn't very specific on the thickness or type of leather to use. I know for braiding the best leather to use is kangaroo but I am just beginning. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks.
