very very nice, well done!

thanks everyone for the suggestions and tips. I got a new offer, it's a PFAFF 1245 yellow (so Germany made in the 90's, isn't it?) completely restored with a servomotor Efka (vd 552) at 1000 euros. Sounds good?

Hi, I've got only the 5$ for the leathercraft library, never heard about free stamps... I will look at flyers better! Thank you

hi, I'm a Gold Member for 3 years, but I've never got any free stamp or similar!!! How did you get them? thanks a lot

thanks a lot. The machines are both completely restored with new spare parts when needed, and also the engines are new. PFAFF is a grey one (so maybe from the 80's??), DA is more recent (but not new). Both at the same price, 800 euros it could be a good deal?

Hi Thanks for reply.. I'm not sure about the exact models, I think the DA is 267-373 (or 273) while Pfaff has triple transport (i don't know if it is the correct word), single needle (as the DA, indeed). Hope it helps

hi, I'm going to buy my first sewing machine for leatherwork. I've read a lot of topics in here and, unfortunately, I'm not able to buy some of your well recomended sewing machines because they are not available in Italy. So, I found the two sewing machines written on object above. The first one is new and the other one is used but completely revisoned (so like new). I will use it mostly for belts, bags, purses, wallets and so on. I ask you a suggestion to help me in the choice. Someone has one of these machines and can give me an hand? thanks a lot Ash

Hi, this is my first post (after the presentation), so I like to say hallo to everyone. here you are a twin set notebook holder I made, veg tanned leather 2mm thick for the cover and 1mm thick for the inside. Hand stitched and antique finish for a vintage look thanks for looking Ash

Hi I could do it, I'm from Italy, send me an e-mail for more details fattidicuoio[at]gmail.com

Hi everyone, I've read these forums for a while and now I'd like to introduce myself and show you something. I'm Francesco from Italy, I'm in leatherwork since 2007 but just for hobby, cause in the real life I'm a biologist. I'd like to make a little business from this passion I've got, so I'm here to improve my techniques and to learn more about leatherworking. To follow, some quite recent object come from my bench, other stuff could be found in my blog leathercreashons.blogspot.com sorry, that is in Italian but I think that for now picture could be enough... and sorry for my English too!! Feel free to comment and judge thanks a lot Ash
