    You are correct no walking foot. I will make sure to give you a call when I'm ready to by a foot. I'm having a hard time finding a lot of info on it other than it was designated as a leather sewing machine.

    I just bought a working Singer 43-4. The guy i bought it from used it for working on tack. What is the max thread size to use and can I find a presser foot that will not mark up veg tan? Any other thoughts on this machine? I bought this machine to learn on ultimately I will buy either a Cobra or a Cowboy just wanted to start somewhere.

    I havn't ever used clear laq to seal so take what i say with a grain of salt. Any wallet i have made of that weight will be stiff and takes a while to break in. I would say any leather conditioner would help though.

    Very impressive! How long have you been tooling?
  15. plowboy73
    Yes it works well. I usually sand and then bevel the edge. The only time it mushrooms is when i try to do it when the leather is wet.

    Monica,I only have my phone camera and it takes horrible pictures. I can try it later today. Scratches rub out and blend in when i went to the store last week every piece i looked at was nice. Honestly it looks a lot better than the picture.The belts I made 5 months ago look great still.

    Monica, I bought some of the crazy horse water buffalo and cut some belts from it. It wears great and definitely has character. I really like it.

    Yep we buy from them because we're non discerning crafstmen and beginners. Look we all do this craft because we love it we don't always need a perfect canvas and sometimes we do. We get what we pay for and I'm pretty sure we're watching our profit margins too?
