Not on these. Cut by hand. -
I made one like this and mounted it on my buffer. Used an angle grinder with a 80 grit flapper wheel to true it up. Works pretty good.

It’s a series of scrap leather discs I cut and glued together to use for stropping my cutting tools. Works pretty good.

I use a cowboy 4500 manual or the Cobra 4 pretty much the same machine. Most parts will interchange,but I have found the Cowboy and Cobra presser feet are about a 1/4" longer. I reworked my feet so I didn't have to keep adjusting the machine. Got called a redneck and dumbass for doing it, but it worked for me. LOL

I have that same machine and love it.I paid 2k for mine used. Mine doesn't have the thread lubricant pot on top though. I also changed the clutch motor out with a servomotor I already had. Good machine.

I bought one of the replacement burnishers from Tandy for 30 something dollars and bored it out 8n the lathe and threaded the end to fit arbor on my HF buffer. Works like a charm.

Good source for Timber Rattlesnake hides
JKHelms replied to georgiapine85's topic in Leatherwork Conversation
There is a guy down here in South Ga. that makes a lot of rattlesnake belts. You might see if he will sell you some. His name is Bryan Wynn @ Bull and Briar Leather. I know he has a Facebook page and I think a web site. -
International Die in Ga. does this for me all the time

I have one for a dremel, but find the small arbor is easily bent and vibrates like the devil.

I ordered the Tandy burnisher and reworked it to fit my HF buffer. Made a leather stropping wheel for the other end. Way less than a $100 Buck’s in it. Makes burnishing belts and holsters a dream.
