Thank you guys very much! Other than the original manual I couldn't find any information so this made my day!
Uwe, according to the manual, it calls for 7x5 for leather, but i couldn't find any information on them so I came to the experts.

Hello all, I'm looking for needles for a singer 7-33, I need 7x5 but am having no luck with google.

Can someone please tell me where I can find a supplier that will sell me 2 or 3 sandal footbeds at a time. All I can find is 500-1000 pair minimum orders.

Had this saddle brought to me. Looks like a McClellan but has no ID or makers mark o n it. The only markings are the initials W.J.M. on the tree.

Take a look at sailright. They have a vinyl that is, I gues the word is stetchy.... Is really easy to work with and form to the seat.

I have a saddle of the same style, made back in the 30's. Are you going to use it or is it for decoration?

Hello Elay77, I use resolene cut 50/50 with water. Then I use neutral boot wax over it. I've only made 15 solo seats so my experience is limited, but I haven't had any complaints yet... fingers crossed For the natural worn look I use 0000 steel wool. Again limited exerience but thats the best medium I have found to distress leather. Hope that helps

Hey, welcome to the forum from San Antonio!

Love the CIB in the background!

I cant believe no one has posted on this yet! Interesting design, very kool. How did you cut it out? The cut looks so smooth, like it was pressed out.

Nicely Done. Really like your color transitions

Got it. I love it. Was childs play learning the ins and outs of this machine.

I finally took the plunge last Sunday and ordered a Cobra Class 4P online. Spoke to them last Monday and it is supposed to ship this week! Have scoured the internet and youtube and watched all the videos of this machine and now I can't wait to get to work with it!

I bought this swivel knife on ebay a couple of months ago; it has no markings on it that would reveal the maker. Is really smooth and has become my favorite to use but I would really like to know who made it.

May just take you up on that Robert. Thanks and if you ever get north of San Antonio look me up!

Hi (stands up) I am David, and I am a leatheraholic!

Welcome brother. I'm still active at Ft Sam. If you ever find your way to Boerne or San Antonio look me up. Like you it has consumed my life. I'm either working on something or thinking about my next project. Is a huge help for PTSD, which is why I started it.

I use resolene to seal most of my stuff (cut 50/50).. for motorcycle seats I will usually use clear boot polish or snow seal to waterproof them after resolene. My two cents but it works for me

From time to time I use a permanent marker.

Wow Slyvia, great idea! I am going to look into one of these.
