  1. You found nothing because there really is nothing. The end (where the end pin is located) of the guitar can not support the weight and might damage the guitar. Classical players typically don't play standing so there is basically not need for a strap. Willie Nelson uses a strap the hangs from his neck with a hook on the end that hooks on the bottom of the sound hole. I don't like them because of potential for damaging the guitar sound hole. Or you could make a hammock v that hangs from the neck and just set the guitar in the hammock when playing.
  2. My saw has an attachment much like a pressure foot it is just too high. If an extention could be made I would think that the foot holding down the leather and a 40 or 48 tpi blade should do the trick. I'm going to work on that.
  3. I am wanting to start making my dies. Can you put up pictures of your die operation. I am wanting to do my dies as well but am flying in the dark. I am spending money on some things I may not need. Any advice would be treasured. Thanks Darrel
  4. My grandson age 5, is into bullriding and want a rig. If you have ever priced them you understand why I want to make them. I don't know that I have ever seen one up close so I don't know where to begin. Need help.!
  5. It would seem that he would in breach of contract and you should be the on confronting him. You had a contract to do the work then he changed the agreement and broke the contract. I am no legal person just how I see it.
  6. Thanks, I just got off the phone with a Cowboy dealer in Dallas/Fort Worth and I think I will be getting a CB4500 thanks to you and others input. I struggled with a Techsew 5100/4100 but I believe the CB4500 will give the least problems and let a novis get started sewing sooner. Now do I get the short 10" or 16" cylender????? Again thanks to everyone for you help.
  7. Thanks for the information. This is going to be a gift for my Son also. I am going to give it a go.
  8. I to have a Singer 31-15 and would love to know just what it will do. It has not been used in several years so I am taking it in today to have it cleaned and adjusted. I plan to make holsters and belts to give you an idea as to the thickness of leather that I will be working with. Anything you can add would be gratefully accepted.
  9. It shows to go you that there is nothing new under the sun.
  10. I love what you have done. I am wanting to do much the same for my 3006. Please give details. Where you took measurements? ext::
  11. I have limited knowledge but this discussion made me think about using the plastic wheel that I got from Tandy. I got an arbor from Harbor Freight. I attached the wheel to the arbor then used it in my drill press at a slow speed. It seems to work. Any thoughts?
  12. My apologizes Darren yesterday was my day for making big mistakes. You saved me big. I'm glad I joined leatherworks.net and had the pleasure to find helpful knowledgeable folks like you.
  13. Thanks Ann for everything. I had paid but, it has been refunded and all is well. If nothing else I have learned to come here before I do something like that again. I guess I will use the old Singer 30 something 13 and be glad I have that until I can get what I need. Again thanks for being there.
  14. That is the one. How badly did I do? I can't find anything on the machine or the company. I tried to post a pic but I can't even do that well.
  15. Has anyone ever heard of Aguja Commercial leather sewing machine model number GNI-4A? I like a dummy shot my mouth off and apparently I am the new owner and I don't have any idea what I have. HELP Please
