  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. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. It’s not an issue any more! Thanks kkg. This thing fit like a glove and works like a champ!
  6. Nice mods! I am interested in No. 10, the stitch length guide. It is an issue with my Sew Strong, another Sailrite clone.

    My fist inlay sheath

    I bought it from Tandy already dyed. I think it was called Petrel. I thought it would look good with the black.
  8. Thanks Suzelle. I get a little better each time I use the powered machine. I hope the same holds for the Boss.

    My fist inlay sheath

    Yes Sir. Thank you. The customer was very pleased.
  10. 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.
  11. 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.
  12. Finally got the new machine set up! Got stitch length set, but bottom stitches were not pulling up
  13. 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.
