You appear to have gotten a bargain, the prices on this model are now over $4k delivered to Adelaide. This is from the same people you got yours from @dikman. Funny how a year later I find myself looking at the same thing.

Buying A Cowboy 4500, Is It A Mistake?
robbied replied to Doc Reaper's topic in Leather Sewing Machines
Not that I like to drag up old threads, but after doing the sums and chatting with the supplier, you folk here have put my mind at rest with the decision for me to go ahead and get the 4500, over the smaller versions. -
It does indeed, i'd never played with that part until you asked. I'll have to start using it now. I drew a complex shape and used the 'linked offset' feature. It allows you to drag an expanding (or shrinking) copy of your shape away from (or towards) the centre of the original.

I use inkscape for all my 2D design work. Ivydraw is a good mobile version for tablets (when you just have to sketch it right now)

Vertical type PC bag

Love the lines of this one, the moulded area breaks it up nicely. -
That's one heavy duty tool bag. Very nice.

5x7 Notepad cover

Out of the park! Nice work indeed -
It may lose some of it's shine in a day or two, but that looks amazing. One of these is definitely on my list to make, maybe with Bluetooth headphones for use in the workshop

Front pocket wallet
robbied replied to Mattsbagger's topic in Purses, Wallets, Belts and Miscellaneous Pocket Items
Nice combination of colour and pattern. That tri weave is an eye catcher -
I should have cut and stitched it back together to make it look patched!

Sketch book cover from Veg tan, hand dyed and stitched. I had an issue with the left inside piece, it had shrunk enough after dying that it no longer fitted, so a patch was made and attached. There is a little residual wax on the surface that is visible in some of the pics.

Nice work! i'm about to take pics of a sketch book cover that has a pretty similar closure.

New wallet

The tab idea is quite clever indeed. Very well executed.
