While I was looking though my new issue if the Leather Crafters & Saddlers magazine I found a new hand stitcher on page 63 bottom left. It is manufactured by Luberto Manufacturing inc in Troy, TX. It says it has a 6" throat, has a full rotary hand crank, sews 3/4" thick leather, and a 1" lift. I do mostly knife cases and gun holsters. Any reviews????? Would this machine work to do what I want it to do? What would the difference be between this one and the Tippman Boss besides the cost? You can also pass on any good information to my email. I have a cobra 3 but need a hand operated machine for shows.
