It looks fine to me. Plus your friend was happy because someone he knew did something special for him.

Nice stuff Workingman. Thanks for sharing.

Wow.............what a find and what a history! Thanks for sharing..............I am also interested in those darn color plastic pieces....

Billy P I just found this reply. I am sorry that I missed it. The one listed was SOLD, but I found the other one that I had. It is a bit different and probably better. If you are still in the market let me know and we'll see what we can work out. Thanks.

Very Kewl!

Welcome to the forum Sara!

I agree. I would not go anything larger than 3/4". I have a nice oval stamp that is within this limit for medium works. Good luck.

I have given it a try on a couple dies that I have bought off ebay. I wasn't able to get it like my clickers from TCD. I wonder if Heather has a resharpening program where they will do it for a reduce cost? Good luck.

An email has been sent. I will report back as soon as I hear something.

Welcome back and continued success!

Yes, carefully. I would suggest that you strop it good before consider sharpening it.

There was a couple of ad's on here where someone was selling their entire equipment. I would also recommend a copy of the latest Leather Crafters and Saddlers Journal. Towards the back are ad for individual selling what you are looking for. Good luck!

Welcome to the forum!

I need a half a dozen to complete my collection if you are willing to part them up? Send me a message if you decide and I give you the list that need. I will give you $5 each plus shipping. Thanks.

Real nice job. I like the color. Welcome back to this addiction we call leather! Happy Craving!

I referred someone from here to a person that was on my FB network that was selling a nice one. I haven't heard that the machine was sold. If you send me your name, email and phone through a message on here, I will forward it to the seller. Maybe you will get lucky? Good luck.

Typical leaf liners come in three different shapes. A regular beveler with lines, a triangle with lines, a pear or shield shape with lines and a semi rectangle with sharp edges. The beveler ones that I own came in a pair. The right and the left angle. The triangle, rectangle and pear or shield shape are just one tool that can be used on both sides. The way that I was taught is that you want to mimic the veins that coming from the stem outwards towards the end of the leaf. The natural process of growth would be from the bottom of the stem where the leaf starts it life upwards toward the tip of the leaf that represent nerves, if you will. The bevelers are easy, but sometimes confusing for some people who are starting out. You determine which tool has the 'right' angle you want and you slip the heel and bevel upwards. Switch bevelers and do the same to the opposite side. The other tools mentioned here are a bit more simple to use. You pick the flat side with the corresponding angle and bevel away upwards. Remember, you want to start out heavy in your pounding at the bottom and fade out as you reach the top. You might want to tilt the tool towards the center stem to avoid making a complete tool mark. I hope I didn't confuse you. I guess I can walk over to my block and take some snap shots for you if I did confuse you? Good luck.

Try Grey Ghost Graphics. Jeff might be able to help you out!

If you call Wickett & Craig and/or Hermann Oak, they will usually skive your leather down to your desired ounce if you request it.

This one was a three piece portfolio and my third at the time. The first two were one piece portfolio. The new owner really liked his portfolio. Good luck

ELF is a new one to me. Thanks.

Ohio Travel bag. Give them a try.

I agree with Dan. I usually wax my thread before putting it through the needle eye.
