Try leading one side down first, by a 1/16" or so. That way the cutting pressure is spread out. Then bring the other end down to the same depth. As said, casing might help.

Well, Rats! Does anyone else out here have bobbins and that silly little screw? God bless

Uwe, I see a pile of little parts.... I need the screw that holds the bobbin carrier in place, and bobbins. Needles too, but Constabulary posted a source there. This machine worked fine until I diddled around and lost the screw. I should have just let oil dribble in but thought I'd keep the area clear if I took out the carrier.... The bobbin shown does not fit, by a smidgen. The little cup shaped thing I think is not related, or is it? Yes, those are rifle cases and a nice buffalo robe. And the wooden flat table that fits on the arm. Thank you, and God bless.

Nice! You are having way too much fun :)) God bless

Put a blanket smoothly on top and bottom and run over it with your car.

Unfortunately their 'kit' link says nothing is available now. God bless

Looks like your adjusting lever top is broken off too. Same as mine. Does anyone have any spares for this American splitter? Top two screws adjust roller spacing. The bottom square headed ones are for tension.

Pile 'stuff' on the shelf. Piles of heavy leather tools, magazines, 'stuff'. That will take the jiggle out. Make sure all the fasteners are double damn tight too. Anything you can do to add weight will help a lot. God bless

It's nice how I can relate to all of your work, a soothing feeling to it. God bless Mike

Ha! Watched that movie again last fall, and the 2010 one as well. Wiz, can you wire up my Landis #1 for me?? A nice LCD screen or something? God bless and good night.

A tool seller friend of mine has an old Osborne, Newark, for sale for $50. I just sent him an email to see if it was sold yet. Good knives are fun to own and use. Poor ones........well, not so much. God bless

Mike, Thank you!

Johanna, Works fine now, THANK YOU and whomever you hauled in to help. How many years is this good for now? God bless

Happily it looks like the issue might be resolved. I just clicked and here it is, no wants or warrants, just LW, alive and well. God bless

Oh NO, Not the 'dropped boxen'...... yup, and more than a shoebox full..... and it was windy between the Chem E. building and the Computer room... IBM 1620. Fortran 3. Fun times. And yes, the diagonal stripes saved the day pretty much. Memories! We used to keep our horses over at the county fair buildings all through the class year. One time a grad student from Oklahoma put up a poster of a horses butt and some comment........well, next morning it seems the horse had taken exception to something and crapped all over said student's desk!! Load of road apples and he was not happy :(( Thanks for the shout out about Katherine Johnson. Number cruncher non pareil.

Tom, you are sure right on that. I used a milling machine on 'really slow', and used brace and bit setup for many things. Made water pump cylinder leathers, hydraulic cylinder seals, odd jobs. A friend of mine used to be a hand gasket maker at Chicago Rawhide, I got it from him. Also got a 38 Chevy pickup from him :)))) God bless and stay safe when using power tools. THINK before you press that little button!

It looks like the replacement knives are the same. I haven't worn mine out if fifty years, used it ten times....

Whistler, would you post the video location? God bless

Many thanks to you all. Dug them out and they are 100% steel, only a few have the USA marking. God bless still sorting.......there were another couple hundred

Wiz, thanks for that comment. God bless

My wife has 80 or 90 Tandy stamps from 1974. They are in storage right now, so I am wondering, are these the good 'old style' tools, or 'new'. She never had an issue with plating chipping or any rusting. So....good or not? God bless

Is the bobbin winder missing? It's right under the handwheel.

You are having WAY too much fun! Great looking chest. God bless

Chuck, you are 110% correct. I watched a Univ of Wisconsin student walk in front of a bus, against the 'walk' light......driver shuffled a lot of people around on that bus but didn't hit the idiot.

Dwight, Is there an illustration in the SASS handbook to show holster cant, angles upon clearing leather and the 170 downrange rule? God bless Found the PDF online.
