Nice looking camp spot. i live about 1/4 mile from one of the biggest camping spots in the state So camping to me is basically sitting on the front porch

That man chuck, i aint lie not one bit. He makes a good awl fits my paw perfect. he even has the angle of the blade oriented to the angle of the handle so every time you pick it up it just naturally falls into the correct line up.

I am a machine so...... LOl

Try them. Springfield Leather Company To be honest, If you order $10.00 worth of stuff the shipping is going to eat you alive If you order a $100. it is better

Usa a vacuum pack machine.

thank you.

How do i accomplish this 90 degree angle stitch?

I did not find the old thread, But I remember an old thread about different ways to punch holes in knife sheaths or any thick leather Here is 4 layers of 9oz veg tan. each side is 8mm thick So the total thickness is 16mm On my pattern. where the corner is that the stitching starts on both pieces when folded over. I fold the pattern over and punch a hole transfer the marks to the leather. Then set my windividers and scribe a stitch line. I use the transferred mark as the center of the starting point of my chisel. I punch the scribed line. then come back and re-punch it a little deaper. The chisel does not go all the way through but you can see a pin hole on the back side. I use an awl to finish the hole. on this holster, i sewed it with out any problems,

I thought about snaps, then i envisioned a 45 hitting the floor as you walk out the store And changed my mind

And that darn zipper with the cover is a LOT of freaking hand sewing 4- passes at 8''' long each

I went to the store, a restaurant and pumped gas. the reactions were hilarious

8'''' zipper the flap you see is just like the flap that covers the zipper on your jeans

side by side singer bobbin and patcher bobbin

Here is a purse i am working on. I still have some sewing to finish , and edges to burnish

I use HAx1 size 20 I have size 21 on order for parts /needles/thread seek out bantam saddle tack he has bobbins.

Mine is doing great. It took a month of fiddling and tearing y hair out till I figured how to time it. then the tension is the next hurdle after that. you are golden

OH HELL I just saw the date of the last post January.

High Tony, Thank you for checking in and asking questions, TO ME, that means a-lot I do have a three issues, 1]...screen shot from my cart, 2- spools of thread. they would fit in a $8.00 USPS flat rate envelope or box, I left the site and bought else where. Money is tight. 2].., My last order. LOVE the $30.00 sides I grabbed 4. I also ordered a left foot stamp. I have the right foot, but the left was backordered months ago. Instead of zeroing the stamp on my order. I was sent a treble clef stamp. wth am I supposed to stamp with that? Send me a L foot. so I can have 2 feet instead of one. I am walking i circles here. help me out 3].. From the date I place an order, what does Springfield consider a decent / proper / typical amount of time till the order ships? All in all. Your friendly staff and the customer service is the best I have encountered

Hello Toprank, welcome to the forum The leather tools on the amazon site where are the tools made? Is it a local company or are they Asian imports?

Go to a hvac company or the county dump [my playground] or craigs list, you are looking for the squirrel cage [fan/motor] out of a home heating/cooling unit build a wood box, insert the fan into the box. use a 4''' pvc toilet flange screwed to the box with 4'' pipe routed outside on the other end of the box. cut another4''''' hole this is the intake.

About 20 days late. You were told correct a 50/50 mixture pour into glass jar make sure the skin is 100% covered store it out of direct sunlight for 7 days when you remove it, check for and odors, if odors put it back for a another day using a stick, roll the hide onto the stick with the head first, pull the hide / stretch it as you are rolling it up then set it aside to dry

Springfield leather will sell you just the caps or any combination you want
