  1. What kinda leather projects will you be wanting to sew?
  2. Thanks. I appreciate it. Always nice to be learning.
  3. Looks nice! You did great work. How did you do the ends of the leather around the rings? Thanks.
  4. Look into re-tan veg tan water buffalo.
  5. Nice work. It looks great! Really like your double loop lace work around the edge. Lol there must be a whole roll of lace in that fine holster job.
  6. Nice work. They all look great!
  7. Nice work. It looks great. Make sure to show it after custom scales are added.
  8. I am going to say yes.
  9. Nice work. It looks great!
  10. Nice work. Looks great!
  11. Nice work. It looks great!
  12. Looks great! Nice work.
  13. If you got the funds, buy a juki cylinder arm. Then buy or build a flatbed table top for it.
  14. Nice! Only if it could talk? Imagine the stories to be told.
  15. Idk if a narrow feed dog & plate could help eliminate some of your stitching issues. As mentioned the diamond point or LR point needles, don't seem to pull the stitches down as deep as a S point needle.
  16. Nice work. They look great! Looks like you are on the way to a great adventure. Btw: Welcome to the group.
  17. This is my ugly art work off my phone. But add the height you want to the top of the pattern. Hopefully you can see/understand what I mean.
  18. Why can't you add the heighth on the top of the hat pattern like you want. Then just modify the top part of the pattern/cap. It will be a bit smaller at the top, but keep the headband size unchanged.
  19. I think you are going to get puckering, regardless of the needles you use. You can try stepping down a needle size. What needle size & point style of needle are you using? You can massage the puckering with a hammer or bone slicker or both.
  20. Also don't loose the springs on the 2 screws.
  21. Lacing chisel looks soo much better I think personally.
  22. Also another thing I forgot to mention, sometimes it's the leather quality/brand that can have uneven dying/splotchiness. I had a really nice looking imported veg-tan that did that to me in 1 part of the side I bought.
  23. How long has the bottom example been drying? If I dip using fiebings pro dye, it takes a good 12hours, sometimes more to fully dry out. I've had no luck using a dauber. I dip dye if I can.
