Ken-What machine do you have for a chap machine?

Really nice and clean. LIKE IT

Great link. Thank you so much.

That sounds really sweet

I am very new to this so please don't hammer me. But i am starting to try my hand at making some belts and i have a couple of questions. Do i you use pro carve or easy carve for stamping? I know most people use it for tooling but do i need it for just basket stamping? Any other tips for basket stamping belts? LOL

AWESOME...This is great for a novis like me

Thanks for all the input fellas. Right now i think i will start with a machine that i can do smaller stuff with like belts, book covers, chaps and such. Man are there a ton of options out there. LOL What do you like about this machine? What size leather will it sew?

Thank you for the help. Also for anyone who makes tooled or basket stamped belts, do you glue your blanks to plexiglass before you case them to prevent shrinking? THanks DC

Do you glue your belts to a pice of plexiglass before you case it to prevent shrinking? I know its recommended for sheridan tooling on book covers and such but i wasn't sure if it was used for belts that are tooled or stamped? Thanks again. DC

I am wondering what machine everyone uses for their belts, bags, wallets, book covers, chaps and such. What do you use and what do you think the best machine for the above is? I was originally looking for a machine that could do everything i listed plus holsters and I'm just not sure there is such a machine but i guess i can start with a smaller one for belts and such. Thanks DC

What machine do you use to sew your belts?
