Hello,
Any help is greatly appreciated. I just got a bell skiver and I've been watching a lot of videos to try and set up correctly.
Right now its making a weird noise every time i try to feed the leather. Also, the leather does not move at all towards the knife.
First I thought maybe there is something stuck so i lifed the wheel and nothing. The wheel is able to rotate completly fine with no weird sound if i dont try to feed the leather. The moment i put a piece of leather there it makes the odd noise.
The way I have set it up is that the wheel is less than 0.5mm close to the knife. I have sharpened the knife recently as well. Also, I have tried all kinds of pressure with the foot and nothing helps.
What else can I do?
