    as far as the felt goes..........a wool saddle pad is how I got mine........take a piece of pipe nipple and put a cap on one end......grind the other end to a sharp edge and punch away

    "The machine will sew up to 3/4" of leather with up to size 346 bonded thread." And I have one also that will sew every bit of that.....only thing that limits me is the 9" arm length.

    You can order the osborne awl blades. Or better yet call Sheridan Leather Outfitters and get a Douglas blade

    the White 1315 is not going to be a good leather sewing machine. For under 300 it will be difficult but not impossible. might look for a singer 15-91

    A new one is 2695..........also a Cobra 4 or CB4500 are about the same price new..........check out the banners at the top of the page for our supporting vendors. Also there is a Union Lockstitch just listed for 1500.........now that is also a great machine!!

    I would love to find a source for small pieces...I am making pocket holsters and trim is the most stuff I need
  20. mikesmith648
    if you are on a tight budget then you should check out..... www.dharmatradingco.com they have the acrylics cheaper and also the spirit dyes reasonable too.......will save you money and headaches
  21. mikesmith648
    other than what you already mentioned it looks good to me
  22. mikesmith648
    It might be from the changes in temperature. Looks like dried out some from being exposed. I have a hide with similar areas. Now I keep mine wrapped in brown paper and in the shipping box and it doesn't happen.
  23. mikesmith648
    You can always call Springfield Leather too....they will sell smaller cut pieces until you decide what you want and can also answer those questions. Beats buying a whole lot of leather and not being what you want or need. There are also a lot of posts on holster making if you do a search of the topics you need help with. I just started doing holsters too and get most of my info there.

    just let it air out and the smell will go away.........Eco-Crap is not supposed to be toxic
