I have plenty of those thanks! Live on the up line lol. Photod Big boy last year when it came through. Union Pacific 4014 is a steam locomotive owned and operated by the Union Pacific Railroad. It is a four-cylinder simple articulated 4-8-8-4 "Big Boy" type built in 1941 by the American Locomotive Company (ALCO) of Schenectady, New York. No. 4014 is the only operating Big Boy of the eight that remain in existence.

I'm getting the urge to feel that dragons breath myself now lol. Maybe time to spoil myself with a new skiver also.

your tooling is awesome! wish I had young eyes and hands again to be half that good.

Heck ya those look pretty darn good there, Really like that forge!!!

That is a nice job is it adjustable in length? I like the full ring seems it would provide better control.

Would love to see it but the format isn't a familiar one do you have pics in .jpg

Man I wish I could do that nice of work. Great job!

Very good work!

Awesome little blade, great steel from what I 've seen so far it takes a keen edge and keeps it! I've been using it for a lot of skiving as well as other chores on the work table. I cant thank you enough!

use water to keep it cool grind a bit then dip in water. Take your time and you wont lose the temper.

That's a nice edge and grind you did it should do just fine.

That's really nice work!

Those are really nice!

Here's how I do mine for bigger knives. The folks around here, Wyoming, are really going for the crossdraw style sheaths , the smaller knives would work and look great that way.

very cool indeed!

Those are cool , fix em up!

I know this isn't a leather machine but I gotta tell you folks. About a year ago my daughter, who likes to make stuffed animals, was using it and it started missing stitches and hanging up. Well I had another old singer 401a that I was given and cleaned it up for her to use. This week after making masks all week I decided to try my luck at fixing the problem with the Kenmore as it is a free arm and is useful for clothing repair. Well I have literally taken that darn thing apart 20 times cleaned every inch of it, oiled it, watched every d%^n youtube video on timing issues and basically pulled all my hair out with no real luck. I switched bobbins, needles, hook assemblies, timed it , re timed it and still it would miss a stitch and hang up once in a while with no real reason sometimes four or five times in a row. After THREE friggin days and a spool of thread I figured it out!!!! I noticed the plate that the needle goes through had been hit with bent needles and damaged to the point the burrs were catching the thread randomly and causing the missed stitches, filed it up nice a nd smooth and runs like new!!!!! Hopefully this info may help someone out as I would think leather machines could suffer the same problem.

start making cheap shoes to stand in line for the soup kitchens.

man that sounds fun ice isn't off the lake yet here.

It works great that how I do mine. nummy! you know chicken tastes like rattler.

Friggin great hat! I would wear that fishin.

Nice wish we had timber rattlers here, all I get is prairie rattlers, Some get large enough for wallets but most are to small.

cool, lets see that work!

That's my before coffee face lol , great job!!

Couldn't hang with an education? Atheist ? no wonder your scared. You must mean Chinese new year right that's who really spread it and when it spread globally. There is only one person zero! We don't start many wars but we sure finish them and its why you aren't speaking German right now. You should keep this type of rant to fakebook this isn't the place. I like the LEATHER WORK forum and go here to get away from this crap and don't really need anti anything right now friend why don't we all choose to keep it about leather work. Keep safe, quit blaming start reading, after all you're about to be part of the 5g population control network and one great global community of people under constant surveillance. Isn't technology great? I know you are worried we all are the future doesn't exist anymore.
