I make armour out of hand stitched 3.2 veg (two layers so anything from 5.8-6.4mm thick)

Hi Folks Just wondered if anyone had a used Tippman for sale in the UK or something like it. Anyone ?? Thanks - Alex

Both that same price £1000, my main consideration is it being able to sew through thick veg without issue, the advantage of the 133k is its long arm as I build leather armour.

Thanks for the Vid I've posted a photo in a previous post.. I had a quick go and it punched through a single layer of 3.2 veg but needs a service so not seen it stitch properly. It had a walking foot too Maybe I have the wrong machine code ?? Thanks

Is this not a 133k 13 ?

Hi Everyone Desperate for some urgent advice please. I'm commonly sewing 2 (sometimes 3 layers) of vegan leather together (2 layers of 3.5) and need to know which of these babies people would advise up to the job. At the moment I've the option of a 45k89 cylinder arm or a 133k13 long arm cylinder and just don't know which to go for. Would really appreciate some advice before I spend money. Thanks - Alex

Hi everyone I wondered if any of you had any ideas on where I could source a manual for this machine please. Any help appreciated ! Thanks Alex

Hi Everyone I'm new to the forum and new to tooling but I've worked with armour & leather a while. I'm a noob to hand tooling as have always engraved and have just discovered (the hard way) that when you hot water harden and form a piece during the drying (natural not bake) many of the bevelling raises back up and leaves the carved lines open!!!! I always harden pieces so really need a solution if anyone's got any suggestions :-) Thanks Alex
