  1. I would agree,you need some better leather to start out with..
  2. Yes both dies..You would want to draw on a piece of paper the size strap that you are cutting,size of the hole,and spacing..

  4. I recently purchased a self centering punch That is very well made and easy to use.We make a lot of belts here in the shop and this will help us out.
  5. That is one very nice looking belt..
  6. A few places to check Standard rivet, Randall machinery http://www.campbell-randall.com/ good luck
  7. Yes I would agree with most of the above post's.It was pretty confusing with two auctions going on at the same time under one tent.The leather went high to the point where you could have walked inside Weaver and for an extra $5.00 a hide seen exactly what you were buying.Some of the machines that were good for nothing but a boat anchor went for big money..
  8. Yes we do.. http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=Captain+Itch+Channel&oq=cap&gs_l=youtube.1.1.35i39l2j0l8.6751.7945.0.10957.3.3.0.0.0.0.139.357.0j3.3.0...0.0...1ac.1.11.youtube.iN1vhvv8Oa8

  15. We run 441 clones in our shop.One is an Artisan 3000 ? The other is a Sewpro which runs a bit faster that we use for belts..Both are very capable machines and will sew about 3/4 of an inch of leather..
  16. I showed this link to my wife as she is from Germany..
  17. We have one of these machines in our shop with hundreds of hours on it..It has been a pleasure to sew with..

  21. I first would try a thin plastic shopping bag over the phone and then see if it will go in to your case if it does let it sit overnight..If it is still to tight dampen your case with water and try the same..
  22. I ride quite a bit in the winter here in Tennessee and do use heated gear. However his bibs do look very nice and I have heard that his quality is excellant.
