Howdy Ya'll!!
I bought the bunkhouse tools embossing machine. I know they sell a ton of embossing wheels but I was wondering if you guys had any other sources for them. Just want to see what else is out there. Thank you in advance!!

I normally make these 2.5" wide but he wanted a 3" wide one, which I think is a little big but thats what he wanted.Also The leather had what seemed like a soft area in it and it kinda wrinkled after opening and closing it a few times. I wanted to make him a new one but he said it didn't bother him at all and he liked the wallet. The Ax Freedom Logo on the front is something he designed , I asked him if I could use it on other works and he said no problem, I kinda like that logo.
What laser do you use?

Howdy Ya'll,
Can I use my arbor press to set rivets and snaps? Or is it better to get a press that's made for the specific job?
If I can use my arbor press where and what dies do you use for the job?
Thanks!!

8 hours ago, Wizcrafts said:The Techsew 1460 is an upholstery class machine. It uses thread sizes up to #138, top and bottom. The maximum thickness is listed as 3/8 inch, but that would be in soft to medium temper materials. Hard temper veg-tan leather might be limited to between 1/4 and 5/16 inch. Any holsters sewn on this machine should not be for serious open carry use as #138 thread only has 22 pounds breaking strength. It will be great for belts, pouches, vests, zippers and wallets.
Hey Wiz thank you!! Can you recomend a machine that would work for belts etc and holsters?
-
I was looking at the Techsew 1460 it looks like it would suit the needs of what I need and way beyond that. Mostly I’ll be making belts wallets and holsters. Seems like this would work great for what I need. What do you guys think? Anybody ever use one or have one? Is there any other recommendations in this price point? Thanks in advance y’all

Sorry I'm a total newb to sewing machines. What woukd I need a big bobbin for?
-
Howdy ya'll! I need opinions on the consew 226. Is it an OK machine? Can it sew leather for belts and stuff that thick? Any advice or thoughts woukd be awesome!

I didn't go crazy, I just went with the 2 legged free arm machine with a 5.5W laser with an almost 7"x8" burn area. I have a logo I burn regularly and my burn time decreased from 35 minutes to 4:15. Haven't tried it yet with cutting.
Do you have a link for the new one? Is the old one for sale lol????

So what machine would do what? All those projects don't have much difference in thickness of the leather.
