  1. I just set mine with a press as I set 2 piece rivets. I place a scrap piece of split on the "stone" part and press! I have no problems with them. Tony.
  2. Where is the photo? I think what you want is what we call a Pippin Punch. Tony.

  9. I bought 3 Douglas edgers last year and they're the best I've ever used and easy to sharpen. Tony.
  10. Yeah Ray, that's what I use. Tony.
  11. 42 years ago I was a care free plant operator earning very good money and then I needed to get something repaired for our horse shows. I went to the local saddler and he was too busy to fix it and he said "I'll show you how to fix it yourself" and then it just grew and grew from there. Now I have to try and make money working for myself and have a lot of money tied up in gear to make the job easier and now I still look for more items. I should have learned by now that enough is enough! Tony.
  12. That's the way to look at it! Tony.
  13. That's a very good tip, Tasha. Tony.
  14. Is that Mao on the wallet, John? Tony.
  15. I'm speaking from experience. If you push on the chisel firmly, the beveled side of the chisel will just push the leather away from the cut, it will spring back!!! Tony.
  16. iF THAT'S ALL IT TAKES, JUST GO AND BUY A CHEAP CHISEL! Tony.
  17. I play the Fool. My wife is musical, she used to teach the Organ and plays the piano and organ here at home. She can even sing. She tried to teach me to play but gave up in despair, although I was able to play Home on the Range one handed in the end!!! Tony.
  18. Chrome plate will wear off brass if it is used all the time and it isn't as strong as Stainless. If you go for Brass, make sure the tongues aren't Solid Brass as as they will bend if enough strain is put on them. Tony.
  19. Yeah, we call them Spade bits down here in Tassy. Tony.
  20. ^You can get stainless steel rivets from Weaver I think, so you would only need a buckle and a dee for a collar. Tony.
  21. I'd go all stainless steel with dees, snaps and buckles and copper rivets or chicago screws. Tony.
  22. I've never found any solid brass rapid rivets, only brass plated ones. Tony. And if you find some Ruth, please let me know. Tony.
  23. It looks great. Good job! Tony.
  24. No, but there have been times when I wished that I had!! Tony.
