    7/8" Round Spots

    Bumpedee bump
  2. Machine is sold pending payment !!!
  3. Yes Sir your not too far away. Guessing about 150 miles or less. It workd great for belts, holsters, chaps, knife sheaths, harness, all types of cowboy gear, etc. In my opinion it's good for anyone not just a newbie. It's boils down to personal use & opinion. If you are needing to do a lot of sewing I would say go motorized just for the fact of time & speed. The thing I like about the Tippman is I control it completely. I had a Tachsew beofre this machine & it was way too fast for me. Good machine, it was just the wrong machine for what I used it for. I am thinking on replacing it with the Cowboy 3500 to speed things up a bit plus I have 3 kinds of arthritus & 2 shoulder surgeries & the cranking the handle gives me some problems. I am just going to make it easier on me more than anything. Hope this helps with your questions. Tex Ye Sir I still have it.
  4. Yes Sir it is.

    7/8" Round Spots

    I think they are stainless cause I can't smell any brass. I don't know any other way to tell. They are round but flat, not domed. 3/16" tall not including the prongs. 1/2" tall including the prong.

    Anyone out there in the big ole leather world interested in these big round spots?
  7. I know where Katy is. It's for sale anytime. I just meant this was the only place I had listed it for sale. Hadn't listed it anywhere else.
  8. Yes Sir I still got it. Haven't tried very hard to sell it. Been using it some for the past couple of weeks.
  9. Where are you located?
  10. Bump
  11. I have a pattern for a roper wallet if that is what you are looking for? It is just the outside shell not the insides. I just make the inside how I want them when I make 1. Eddie

    That's prettty good. What kind of motor did you use. Do you mind sharing your idea on how to make 1? What kind of cost also to make? Thanks, Eddie

  17. I am selling my TIppman Boss hand stitcher. Serial # 1719. Model H-S. This is a cast iron model, not an aluminum model. It is In good condition & stitches like it should. Included are 7 bobbins, 3 needles, bobbin winder shaft, left & center presser feet, small plastic TIppman parts box & TIppman manual. For some reason this is all the pictures I could get to upload. Appearantly I do know how to take pictures either, don't know why they are sideways. $1000.00 plus shipping.

    7/8" Round Spots

    Surely someone out there needs the rounds spot. Make me a legit offer. They are collecting dust here.
  19. Excellent craftsmanship. Did you hand stitch it or machine stitch it? The black looks good on it with the domed rivets. If you wanted some white you could always paint it in. Tex
  20. I don't know if it will help you or not but Tandy is closing their Chattanooga, Tn. store. You could call David (the mgr.) there & he would probably give you a managers discount on a new Tandy splitter. I ask about 1 & it was priced to me for $250.00. Their number is 1-800-251-7782 or 423-855-7366. They are trying to sell as much as possible so they don't have to ship it to other stores. Tex
  21. Well I don't know if I am right or not but I always use several coats of Tankote on the nose bands I have made. Hope that helps. Tex
  22. When you say going for at auctions, are you talking about what they have them listed for with a starting price on Ebay? All those on Ebay have pretty high starting prices without any bids. That is the 1 thing about an auction, what an item sells for is really about all it is worth. Starting prices on these sites really doesn't mean much unless someone is willing to bid that starting price. I am not knocking your saddle, so please don't take it that way cause to you it may be worth much more than I quoted earlier that it might sell for. I base my idea on saddle values ( which don't mean anything to anyone ) is if the saddle is made by an individual that is a saddle maker from start to finish or if it is a factory made saddle that has been worked on by many. There is a whole world of difference between the 2. Sorry I can't help you on this saddle cause there is not a lot of info on them. All there really is that they were a saddle factory from out in San Francisco, California.
  23. It is just a light weight trail or pleasure saddle. I don't like to tell people what their stuff is worth but if you were selling it, you probably could get between $100.00 to $150.00 for it. Tex.
