  1. Unless you build one for you needs. I have built a couple of 'couch' stitching ponies. I am attaching a couple of photographs for you. http://farm1.static.flickr.com/160/373211629_47c45ae8cb.jpg My favorite and still in use.... http://blog.artifactbags.com/wp-content/gallery/stitching-horse-vs-stitching-clam/antique-stitching-clam.jpg and of course, to help you understand how they are made.....minus the language barrier....here is a short video http://www.fineleatherworking.com/blog/making-a-sewing-clam/ Hope this helps.

  3. It looks like some form of soldering system with knobs to elevate the heat levels. You could do the same with a soldering iron. There is a company in South Korea (I think) on eBay that is selling edge tips in various widths to be used in your soldering iron. Good luck.

    Hello

    Welcome to the forum Abbyanna. Nice work!
  9. I use a thin piece of leather with a tight grain and glue it to a flat and true board. I add a light coat of neatsfoot oil and when it soaks in, I rub my green rouge onto the leather strip. On the go, I use a piece of left over poster board or a business card to rub Green or White rouge for stropping. Hope this helps.
  10. Ditto with Clint.
