Hello Nox... and colleagues...... - Yes, this Saint-Sauveur I dived. She go down, but the small lake is beityfull - I Dive the Emergence-de-Ressel, the Font-del-Truffe, the La-Finou, and other Caves.... ------------------------------------------------------- - By the way... The Eagle...... from Plough-Gouge One often finds Sattler tools with the so-called ....."WaA" Stamp. He looks so... https://en.Wikipedia.org/wiki/Waffenamt_codes#/media/file: Waffen.jpg The Eagle stands for Wehrmacht acceptance and the Number for the inspection Officer. (Quality control) - - Wenn the Eagle is slightly larger and holds the "Hackenkreutz" ( in Englisch = Hook-Cross or Swastika ??? ) in the Ring in his Clutches, so that is the German Imperial holding stamp. So the Ownership of the German Empire. It is everywhere where space was always both. The tool companies have worked also for the "Wehrmacht" and were subject to a strict quality control. Greetings Walter

Hello NOX If you a list the ifjox have the tools nor does, that would make me interest. Awesome pictures, and yes I know this tool brands, but not with the address which belongs to. Sorry, I have your posts it first now read. I bought some tools from Ifojoss. I even got him to a market hit, that was about 1993, I was in France at the cave diving. I do not remember where it was, somewhere in central France to Rocamadour. I then made the Eemergence de ressel, the Font del Truffe, the la Finou etc. dives. at that time I was just not interested and I have not even the man with the saddlery plant zeugen gesprochen...schade. about 4 years ago I got a price list from his son, but unfortunately some were things for me too expensive. you clothes are beautiful, you have more tools like the most sattler I know. keep it up. I did also saddles, here you said "the French" model, because they had separate seat cushion made of felt, the leather is soaked in water, then with were involved. And of course with "Tree". Yes I'd like the tool catalogs, please give me your e-mail and I'll catalog send you the Blanchard. But please private mail, the system here is cumbersome. Unfortunately I didn't like the rider as a customer, so I stopped after about 60 saddles so. Greetings Walter

Hi all Well, there's just something interesting to buy. "Ricardo" .... is something like the eBay of Switzerland. https://www.ricardo.ch/kaufen/buero-und-gewerbe/sonstiges-gewerbe/sonstiges/lederriemen-lochmaschine/v/an820975970/?utm_source=criteo&utm_medium=noncv&utm_campaign=ric_ret_de The machine is cheap, but the transport costs... Greeting Walter

Hello together... Unfortunately, there is only the "MKO" Offenbach making tools. He is the last German Sattler - tool maker. I have just a little time, will also write. But I just put all photos disappeared from the tread that found... What is there...? Without photos, the tread is worthless. I await a response. Greeting Walter

Hello Allan No, Flessati made no tools for a long time. Sattler sure 40 years anymore, but he has it still traded for when I went into teaching for Saddler. Something still found himself when he started to rooms. He simply used "Flessati" as her brand. There were earlier still a Flessati, St.Gallen, from the same family. ( Flessati - Krontal ) Once again, they were Italians. The craft was traditionally widely used for Italians. Greetings Walter

Hello everybody... I had no time to make something here. I hope Alan, the images of his sewing pliers here. He has made super nice. Anyway, I'm very satisfied when I saw them. Yes Alan is probably now the No. 1 in Plough Gouge collecting ..... ((((-. There sure 20 models of the plough gouge from the workshop of Blanchard. He has made nearly 200 years for a lot of companies and tool dealer in his ...Modelle after their request. That's why you will find many models and also many non-branded by Blanchard. Here in St. Gallen there 35 years ago still 3-4 blade forged the saddlery tools sold. The Cutlers had their own brands, and their tools were stamped with its own brand. The last here is also already an elderly man and wants to quit, he is 85 now, I've known him for 40 years when I bought my first knife as a schoolboy. Flessati is his name, he still exists, but he has open only on Saturday. http://www.tagblatt.ch/ostschweiz/stgallen/stadtstgallen/tb-st/Der-letzte-Messerschmied-schliesst;art186,3979304 For me a great loss, just personally, knows it is so long already. Greeting Walter

Hi Simon.................... I've been watching the problem many leather artisans with the leather fold have for long years. I'll show a job taking pictures and step by step how I do this. I work to pull a u-shaped trench often without the leather. The leather can withstand much more form than many want to believe. If anyone who has seen how, working much more precise and easier. I have a small "INCA bandsaw" (old Swiss brand) to produce the forms made of wood. So, I then commit the forms of leather bags in a wood-embossed tool. Setting to the woodworking tools is very quickly done,... 30 minutes for a form. But it takes 1-2 weeks until I time to do. Greeting Walter

Hallo Simon Ich freue mich immer wenn mein Ratschläge etwas genutzt haben. Und ganz richtig, für eine gute Naht ist die Rückseite ....sehr .....sehr wichtig. Sie sollte im Idealfall fast so gerade wie die Vorderseite sein. Und natürlich, wenn die Ahle richtig geschliffen ist, sticht sie viel regelmässiger. Denn, wenn eine zu spitze Ahle auf der vorderen Seite schon falsch einsticht, ist auf der Rückseite der Fehler noch viel grösser, ........der Abweichung beim Einstechen wird nach hinten noch vergrössert. Ist die Spitze aber etwas rund und scharf geschliffen, kann der Fehler beim Stechen etwas nachkorrigiert werden. Die Ahle lässt sich durch den seitlichen Druck über den Ahlengriff etwas führen. Das geschieht beim geübten Näher ganz automatisch. Gruss Walter -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hi Simon I'm always happy when my advices have used something. And that's right, for a good seam, the back is very, very important. It should be almost as straight as the front ideally. And of course, if the awl is well done, it stands out much more regularly. Because, if one already wrong stands up to sharp awl on the front page, it comes out much worse on the back, ...der is increased failed the piercing. The tip is slightly round and sharp, can failed in a playoff to be corrected slightly. The awl through the lateral pressure via the awl handle something lead. I hope this is understandable... with my bad English...))) -: Greetings Walter

Hi Simon... This is the reason why all my tools are finely polished. The finer the surface even less quick forms rust. But I shine just after ...sobald is stains show, and it fats up easily. It has rubbed off earlier hands with alum craftsmen who had strong hand welding. "Alum" is the tanning substance used for White leather, White Leather things the soldiers of Napolens, etc. Wax used in museums to protect metal objects such as armour against rust, which is much more effective as fat, but it's only good if you never touch it. By the way, who in leather or fabric something not good to work goes (cover with fabric or something like that), so you can try it with silicone oil, so with silicone spray from the spray can. This is no stains and makes slippery thick fabrics. Greetings Walter
