Yes i know but some do use them for them stitch marking there work, guilty as charged in my early days

I would say even the older better made Osborne ones would still give you give you a straight stitch mark which is the norm that side of the pound, where's this side of the pond we tend to use a angled stitch mark. Hope this helps JCUK

Tippmann Boss + Tools UK for anyone interested https://leatherworker.net/forum/topic/96583-tippmann-boss-some-tools-for-uk/ Regards JCUK
-
I have a Tippmann Boss + a cobblers bench i had made also a Leather Accessory Pack, 2 half spools of back thread one 277 the other M13 which i believe is 207 also has a manual bobbin winder extra bobbins and needles. The picture with the Head Collar is the last thing i stitched with it. Most of the tools have had very little use if any, i brought these when my main tools were in storage, the 2 crew punches are pictured with them having been used on 5mm + stirrup butt. I am trying to sell as a job lot i know that maybe a big ask but thought i would post here before i post you know where. I am asking £1050 for the lot, willing to travel half way to meet on a day agreed by both parties. Take a look at the photos any questions ask away or PM me maybe be flexible on the job lot job thing for right offer. Have more pics if needed. Regards JCUK

Here is a link thats shows the different types on knives, scroll down to page 12, some people including myself call the head knives single or double head knife, just to add to the confusion. Its an old Joseph Dixon catalog so i think they should know what they are talking about. https://www.boothandco.com/catalogue.pdf Hope this helps JCUK

Its why Farriers here still have to do a 5 year apprenticeship and i think it is only illegal in the UK. I have worked worked in a few different countries and have seen people shoeing horses that i think have only had some very basic training, horrible at times. I have worked in France Chantilly the most beautiful race track in the world for me. Any fresh wound needs to be monitored at regular intervals covering it up can cause more problems at times.

I am taking that you are past the stage of hot tubbing and Animalintex and you are just wrapping for protection, what we do here is soak some gamgee in a iodine based solution pack the cut away area with it this will also help harden the foot off, cut another piece of gamgee to fit your horses foot wrap with a comforming bandage and then vet wrap after that wrap the the sole of the foot using some Gaffer tape double up on it if you need to. Yes Vet wrap is expensive stuff but anything for the treatment of horses is, also you will have to change daily for awhile but at least you will be keeping an eye on the problem and flushing the foot clean with salted water (Epsom Salt if you have it) and letting the sole of the foot get some air to it. I have seen Farriers put pads under the shoe on some horses feet in some cases they have been know hide a lot of other problems if your Farrier or Vet are not around to monitor this, here in the UK only a Farrier and a Vet can shoe a horse and i have been around horses for a long and i am yet to see a Vet do this, yes you can take a shoe off if it is sprung, loose or moved but you cant put it back on it, illegal here. We have a saying no foot no horse. Hope this helps JCUK

The sound of leather on willow this side of the pond is the summer game here.

Not sure but a good chance they do. I can remember using Equus rubber reins grips that i think were made in India or Hong Kong when i was working out in the middle east they had a short life span as you know they can only be done a couple on times the life span of the reins were shorter than they should have been that was before Abbey took them over.
-
Have seen so things that made think something is not as it should be, a customer wanted some things made up i thought i had the buckles already i was wrong checked with Abbey they were out of stock also checked Le Prevo, no joy so went F Martin & Son who had what i needed. Also have noticed certain colours in the weight of leather i needed out of stock. I really hope they not in trouble its not only lorinery, leather it Equus rubber products amongst other companies they have saved which will hit hard it they are really hope they are not.
