First Two Weeks With New Cobra Class 4

[First Two Weeks With New Cobra Class 4]

Hi Dave,

I talked to Steve, and (if you are the right Dave) your machine will ship Thursday the First. I think you ordered it July 1. Steve sells those machines as fast as he orders them, and the cycle time is about eight weeks. As I have said before, these dealers put in a days work on most every big stitcher (Cobra 3 or 4 type). That's why you get a machine that runs so well for so long. That is why you want to use a brick and mortar dealer instead of an eBay seller.

Enjoy your new machine.

Art,

I am Dave, but I did not order my machine in July, I said almost 15 weeks that is what it will be on 9-2-11 order date on the reciept is 5-20-11 at 10:01:43 AM. that counts up to 15 weeks on my calender. I was only interested in what the normal time frame was as I have done most if not all my major purchases as a go get it pay for it, and haul it home type of thing.

As for Steve and Cobra I think he is a great guy with a good product would buy another machine from him if the need should arise, he has had a run of bad luck timing whatever, getting machines imported.

I did get a message from Steve saying that it would ship on thursday.

WELL WORTH THE WAIT. It already is saving me time.

I am sure I will have questions.

I am hoping it is so the wait has been long, at least I think it is, not sure what the standard wait for a ordered machine is, but I am at 14+ almost 15 weeks of waiting.

Last week lacking the Cobra I had to sew an 18'9" length twice at 5 stitches to the inch with a Tippman Boss,I had put this job off and could wait no longer. Anyone want to do the math on how many pulls on that handle it took. This is just one of many ways the long delay getting the machine has effected my shop and production.

Still Waiting

[saddle ID]

I need a little help with ID of this saddle don't need to know to do the repair just would like the information.

A client brought this saddle in to have it repaired. He stated that it was an officers parade saddle I can find no marking or maker stamp. It looks to be on a McClellan tree. The saddle came to him from a friends widow and was reportedly rode for 50 plus years.

Thanks for any help.

Dave
