  1. Thanks Doc and Fredk. Great ideas I will definitely use on the next one.
  2. Let me know where you think I can improve. This one is mine, but I’ve had a few people want to know if I can make them one. Just feel like it’s not quite where I want it.
  3. Thanks Rocky. I will give that a go.
  4. First project sewn on the Boss. Back side. I am going to really like this machine. Took less than 5 minutes to stitch this up.
  5. Need a practice project so I came up with my “Fat Boy” sheath. Top of knife is below the top of the belt so it doesn’t poke me in the Dunlap when I sit down. First time using the small Carlos border stamp as well. I definitely need more practice.
  6. It’s not an issue any more! Thanks kkg. This thing fit like a glove and works like a champ!
  7. Nice mods! I am interested in No. 10, the stitch length guide. It is an issue with my Sew Strong, another Sailrite clone.
  8. I bought it from Tandy already dyed. I think it was called Petrel. I thought it would look good with the black.
  9. Thanks Suzelle. I get a little better each time I use the powered machine. I hope the same holds for the Boss.
  10. Yes Sir. Thank you. The customer was very pleased.
  11. My first inlay sheath. Exotic is ostrich leg glued to 4-6 oz. Front and back is 8-10 oz and there is a piece of 4-6oz glued to the back as a welt. The belt loops are about 28 oz of leather.
  12. Tinkered with the top tension for about 5 minutes and the crooked stitch line has no knot showing! 2 pieces of 8-10 oz. I think I’m going to really like this machine.
  13. Finally got the new machine set up! Got stitch length set, but bottom stitches were not pulling up
  14. Mostly price. I went back and forth between the Tandy Pro Outlaw and the Tippmann Boss Deluxe Package. The Boss was $500 cheaper delivered. Tandy, being in Texas had to charge sales tax. My largest project would be a pancake gun holster and I think the Boss will handle that just fine.
