I've never ever had trouble sewing leather that has been stuck together with contact cement or Duall 88 and I use needles #160 - 230. The only time I have had trouble similar to that was once when I tried to use the double sided adhesive tape and gave up in frustration as that used to stick to the needle and I've never used tape since.

That looks good and not too hard to make. What size ball is that and could you possibly be able to post a a photo that includes all the bottom half?

I get really jumpy and reach for the Paracetamol when my wife says, "Now I've been thinking".
I also wonder when my son is in the workshop and says things like "What would that machine be worth?"

If I ever want a belt 101% matching edges I glue the back on and then run it through my strap cutter with the knives set at the width I want. I make the blank a quarter of an inch wider than the belt I want and the cutter takes an eighth of an inch off either side and they match perfectly.

I think a lot of trouble for those of us who own firearms is compounded by the lack of COMMON SENSE and LOGIC within Legislators and the Judiciary. These two items seem to have disappeared in recent years. They never seem to be applied.

I just read about the HR 45 bill before your Congress. It looks as if they are trying to bring in laws similar to what we have in Australia. Not too good,eh?
