Great feedback, thank you! I will stick to the Barge stuff as well, although I only use it to hold long enough to stitch.

What Kind Of Stitching Pony/clamp Are You Using?
Blak Smyth replied to jk215's topic in Sewing Leather
Colt Stitcher arrived and works great. Looking forward to using it more. Only complaint is that the knob and bolt get thread wrapped around them often. I might remove them and make a leather belt to hold the clam shut. -

Waiting for a Sheridan Colt Stitcher to arrive. The price has increased to $80. -
Thank you for providing a picture, I just placed an order for one.

My Latest Projects
Blak Smyth replied to shinelightshine's topic in Purses, Wallets, Belts and Miscellaneous Pocket Items
Everything looks really nice with good stitching. I really like the passport wallet. One thing I noticed is the snap on the tobacco pouch is smashed crooked. The use of a shorter snap will prevent this. I had the same problem at first because I was using a longer snap, switched to a line 20 short and it worked perfectly. Here is a link to the ones that worked for me. -
Keep us posted, would love to hear your results.

Looks really nice, did she love it? I know what you mean, I made a small satchel and it took forever for all the hand stitching. Everytime somebody asks how much one would cost I cringe.

Thank you. I get them from many sources, still searching for the best one, but Ebay seems to have an abundance of decent ones. Because everybody loves pictures, here is another: -

Another old thread revival but my stamps seem to hold very well in Chromexcel on wallets.
-
I know this is a thread from a few months ago but I ran across the same issue and all I did was sand the area I intended to glue with a course piece of emery cloth. This seemed to fix my problem and held fine until I stitched.

Small Leather Tray
Blak Smyth replied to hunio's topic in Purses, Wallets, Belts and Miscellaneous Pocket Items
Like everything you produce, amazing finished and amazingly clean work! -
I ordered some stuff from Springfield and I am almost certain they sent me the wrong color but it worked out fine. The hides definitley show some imperfections but I am able to work around them with the small items I am making. This stuff is wonderful to work with though, I already ordered some more.
