    I have to ask what is polyester mainly used for or why polyester instead of bonded nylon. I'm asking because of curiosity. I just bought a paff 145 h4 and it came with a new spool of polyester.

    You might want to try the one berry king makes. Another thing you can try is using light hits untill the Post is almost seated

    Try the thread exchange. I myself have never used polyester I have always used bonded nylon. I am a parachute rigger and bonded nylon is what is used in the industry

    But using rivets is okay
  10. purplefox66
    Drill holes and then saddle stitch it. I don't think rivets are a good idea it would be to easy to crack the plastic.

    Some people just can't be helped. They ask for advice then when they get advice they know more about everything and have all the answers.

    One other thing is if you don't know what your needs are do not buy a machine o f any kind until you know what you want to sew. I am not saying this to be rude or anything of the kind but trying to help you from making a costly mistake.

    The best machine to learn on is the one that meets your needs
  14. purplefox66
    You are way way better to not gat any machine until you find one that meets your needs. Save your money until you can buy what you need and not just any sewing machine.

    There is nothing wrong it will make a sound when you are running the machine.

    Go to a Head Stone maker and ask for a waste piece. The one I have is 5 inches thick and it is the best for setting stamping or skiving. You can also go to a counter top place and get scrap I have gotten both for free.

    I'm curious on how many sides of leather does it take to make a saddle also how long.

    Springfield leather sells the Same thing

    Do yourself a favor and get a speed reducer. With the speed reducer and a servo motor you have more torque and even slower and more controlled sewing.

    I loved the one I got in the 70,s when I first started leather craft but then years ago I found leather wranglers and that is by far the best blade I have ever used.

    Take the bobbin out. There is thread around the latch that holds the bobbin in place. Do that and your problem is solved.
  24. purplefox66
    A speed reducer is your friend it adds torque and it will reduce the speed more. Leather machine company or Toledo industrial sewing machines.

    I would do the cut out and add a piece of plastic over both sides and stitch it in place and then stitch the outside edges.
