  3. Chuck, Is there a specific brand or type that you like best?
  4. OMG, that is amazing work. I made a carry on bag for my first project, but it did not come out looking as good as this! Nicely done.
  5. I think they look great. My question is about the Swatch watch. I thought they had the 3 little "bridges" on the top and bottom of the face where the pin goes through and connects the band to the face? All of my Swatches are old, so maybe they have changed this design. If not, how did you handle that? Any close up pics of the Swatch band connection? Thanks, Joe
  6. Have you come down on the price yet?
  7. Well, I have received my custom made awl handle and blade and have to say that I am very impressed by the quality and detail in this new tool from rawcustom. Once I figure out how to post a picture on here, I will do just that. I cannot recommend him enough, and I love my new tool.
  8. cjmt, thanks and I cannot wait to see it. cheepo63, Peter, what about you and your clamp? Can you tell me what add on touches did you put on your clamp? Thanks.

  10. Wow, very cool. Thanks for the description!
  11. Ok, I will bite.....how in the heck did you do that?
  12. I want you to make something for me...........ANYTHING! You are a real master.
  13. Holy crap, those are some beautiful.....but really, really expensive shoes! I thought I had some high dollar shoes, but mine are payless level compared to these!
  14. I have no idea what you should charge, but I was just getting ready to ask you about the hardware when you stated that it was one of a kind You did a great job stitching, in my opinion. Do you have a double stitcher or did you run it through twice? Also, what is your blog address?
  15. Matt, Thank you for the incredibly thought provoking post. I have to say that I never quite looked at this subject in this manner, so thank you for the fresh insight.
  16. Wow, that is gorgeous. How long did it take? Also, what is the name for that cross/X stitch and how can I find out how to do it? I know, rookie question, sorry in advance.
  17. I know this is an old thread, but did anyone ever find a supplier of collegiate conchos? I am specifically wanting UNC-CH. Thanks in advance.
  18. Wow, this is really beautiful. I am finishing up my first bag right now and only hope it comes out as nice as yours did.
  19. Another thing to add to my Christmas list!
  20. I too, just recently acquired a Juki 1541 and have not used it for much yet as I have been waiting to get my new (slower) motor and speed reducer from Raphael's. I now have the parts and will be installing them tomorrow. I am mainly sewing softer, 5-6 oz leather for bags with mine. I appreciate any info anyone (especially you, Wiz) would care to give about this machine and it's abilities.
  21. I find that the two bottom corners are the hardest areas to get the stitching correct in. Does anyone have any advice to getting the corners to look smooth and correct?
