The longest part for me is finding the ends and tying them together. Pulling it through takes a second, literally except for threading the needle.
Re the work area, there's another sewing machine, a bell skiver, another work bench, rivet setter, hot foil machine, clicker press, two arbor presses, bench drill, two wheel polisher and a laser engraver. Now that I have the two machines working well I'm gonna have to make a tough decision about which one has to go to make room for the new one coming next month.
