Thor replied to cloehorse's topic in How Do I Do That?
What kind of tree is this, wood or ralide? -
Looking great, now you just have to make her a matching arm guard.

Very sorry to hear that. All the best for his recovery.

Quite sure you'll find what you're looking for here https://www.pinterest.com/riding1493/leather-tooling-patterns/ here https://www.pinterest.com/riding1493/leather-tooling-frames-ornaments/ here https://www.pinterest.com/riding1493/leather-tooling-native-american-and-tribals/ or here https://www.pinterest.com/riding1493/leather-tooling-norse-celtic/ Not a bad idea having a pinterest account

According to this http://www.naehmaschine-antik.de/zub-manual.html it was manufactured by Dürrkopp around 1910. Another Elastic by the same name was obviously made by Adler and by the looks of it there's even one by Adam Opel (German car manufacturer) http://www.naemaschmiede.de/index.php?p=14&masch=35 which dates back even further than the Dürrkopp model. So honestly I have no idea and if I hadn't come across the picture on eBay I wouldn't have known it at all.

Much better! Thanks a million.

Any chance to place the "Who Was Online" block at the end of the sidebar. It's really not of any interest, or at least not as interesting as the following blocks.

Just to give an alternative... Contact Ross either via this forum, his facebook page https://www.facebook.com/EinhornLLC or his website http://www.einhorncustom.com/#!leather-working-tools/cbpha. I'm more than happy with his work and my knife fits my hand just perfect.

Dog Collars-- Feeling like I need help!
Thor replied to KarissaTepp's topic in Leatherwork Conversation
I'm not making dog collars, but if I would, I would use harness or bridle leather. I think the same as Roq, the pretty blingy thingies is for the show and for those dogs that carried around in the ladies' handbags. Had to chuckle on that Tandy note. Is it part of the problem? No, yes, maybe. I have not idea which leather you used of them and whether it was of good or not so good quality. If leather cracks it can have several reasons but usually is due to missing oil/grease which keeps it supple. If you'd see how I abuse my saddles at times, scrub and rub the soap onto the leather you'd be amazed that they don't look bad, but that's something one can expect of good quality leather. Never heard that one should only use a damp cloth. Heck, I've even cleaned some saddles using a pressure washer. Dry and recondition them afterwards and everything's fine. -
More than welcome. I know what you're going through. Happened to us as well when we moved from Germany to Canada and years later back to Germany. Took me years to figure all of that out and general electricians weren't of any help at all. Fortunately my uncle is an electrical engineer and was able to tell me what I needed. I'm not an electrician at all, but will try to explain what this setup looks like to me. While AC is the most reliable way/source of current some setups require DC. This being the reason why a AC/DC converter is usually installed within the machine if needed. However, if any part of your setup requires DC there will have to be a converter of some kind or you are running at risk damaging your system. Here's a very basic and simple yet understandable explanation http://www.wikihow.com/Convert-AC-to-DC

Walter, nach dem letzten Update ist noch nicht alles wiederhergestellt. Die Administratorin (Johanna) arbeitet daran. Kann sich nur um eine gewisse Zeit handeln, bis alles wieder da ist. Just informing Walter about the recent update and that Johanna is working to recover everything. This is the company Walter was referring to http://mko-handel.de/

Sorry for chiming in and sounding like a smart ass now but I had that issue for quite some time as well. Grommit your issue isn't the voltage it's the frequency. Your converter must convert both and you will need pretty strong unit like this https://www.conrad.de/de/voltcraft-at-400-nv-vorschalt-transformator-spannungswandler-115125230240-vac-230240115125-vac-400-w-511360.html Whatever is chip-controlled needs a frequency converter as it relies on the frequency for any calculation, be it speed or time... On that page I linked is an English manual at the bottom of that page.

My first western rig
Thor replied to immiketoo's topic in Gun Holsters, Rifle Slings and Knife Sheathes
Mike, I'm curious what make those stamps are. Really like them. -
Guess pictures of some kind would be helpful to know what we're looking at. How would someone know if a pattern must be re-sized when one doesn't even know what it looks like? Or the source where you got the patterns from might already be sufficient.

My first western rig
Thor replied to immiketoo's topic in Gun Holsters, Rifle Slings and Knife Sheathes
Matches your cuff nicely, or is it the other way round? Anyways, a very nice job Mike. -
Chris, that's a very nice seat and no worries about this tech crap. I hate it as well and it could have happened to me, too! There are better things in life than computers and all that gimmick thingies.

Sorry Chris, still getting a message that it's either unavailable or limited to some people. Country limitations maybe?

Hello and welcome Heather, what a great last name - King Arthur Pendragon. Looks like there could be a Vancouver leather guild be formed with all the lower mainlanders on here. I'm sorry I can't answer your needle question but we have a forum on here explicit for sewing machines. Post your questions there and I'm sure someone will help you.

This isn't mine. As far as I know they are used to compress and condense the leather. You might get some more information under the term "leather roller press".

Could you post the exterior as well please? Might be easier to tell which lines are what. Never mind, I found it. http://www.lusso.my/reversible-gg-leather-tote-dark-cipria It's a reversible bag. Hope someone has an idea. This is beyond my experience. I'm assuming, that the exterior is the same as the interior in size and shape and the rounded bottom/corners are needed to make it a reversible bag. That's all I can say about it. Just like the attached pattern.

Don't know the exact English term, but that't the motorized version of this:
