    Would that be the timing belt possibly?

    Do you think it is something about the black dye with rub off? It seems like it is a re-occurring question asked on here & it always seems to be black. Or do you think it is more to do with how it was applied?

    Looks nice! I looked today for a pattern/line art of the feathers & arrow belt. Is that by chance a digital pattern? Or is this your artwork? Thanks.

    I am wondering if you possibly got too much neats foot oil in the belt. Usually 24-48 hours is sufficient for the neatsfoot oil to distribute thru the belt. I would wipe it down with a rag & acetone & then let it dry completely. Then check it for dye rub off. Others may have a better solution.

    Can you post a pick or 2. I always like seeing the classic old tools/machines. Thanks.

    Looks nice! That's is going to be a awesome belt.

    Guys & gals I been wanting a clicker press for mainly T-pockets for wallets. They are timely to make to me. So I was looking into cheap clicker presses, till I can afford a big one. Well I went ahead & ordered 1 in hopes it would do my T-pockets & 4" square coasters. What do you guys & gals think? Will 1.5tons be sufficient? Thanks.

    Let us know if you find a sheared key or something else. Yeah that machine would be perfect for thinning wallet card pockets down. If you decide to turn/sell this machine give me a shout. I am hoping to buy a power splitter next year myself.

    Cool deal! & did you say, you got this machine for free? Awesome!

    Good deal. Share some pics if you don't mind. I am wondering if it may have just sheared a key on 1 of the gear sets. Maybe at 1 time it was stuck/froze up & someone forced it & sheared a key. Great find in my eyes if it can be repaired. Thanks.

    Is it really missing the gears?
  12. DieselTech
    Thanks. Much appreciated. That is what I was wanting to know. I was going to make a few lined belts to sell, but was worried about exactly what you described. Thanks.

    1st thing to ask? What kind of money do you want to spend on your edge bevelers? I finally broke down & bought a good set of bevelers. I bought Palosanto edge bevelers from #0 to #3 I can get you the specs on theirs if you want them.

    Nice work. They all look great! I got a question to ask? Do you ever make random belt lengths to sell at craft shows/ leather shows? & if so. What seems to be your hottest selling lengths? Thanks.

    I can think of a couple different ways. But I'm not good at explaining it. But I could show you a couple ways. Let me know.

    Nice work. It looks great. Classy!

    How the heck did you get the colors to alternate if 2 threads were joined? I'm amazed & baffled. Very cool thou.
  18. DieselTech
    Nice looking duffle. Looks great!
  19. DieselTech
    Nice work. Looks great. Did you use 2 different colors of thread? Or is my eyes deceiving me. Thanks.
  20. DieselTech
    Looks good. It definitely stands out more now. Nice work.

    The gears are made of metal, & it's got sealed roller bearings on all the shafts. It seems to be a decent machine for the money. I'm pretty happy with it.

    Update: The more I use this strap cutter, the more I like it. It does a real nice job! Here is some 5oz pebbled veg-tan that I cut, 3-1½" wide straps & 1-1" wide strap. Cut it like butter.

    I say, if the money is there. Go for the Cobra np-4. Good people, plus product support if problems arise. I got to make the same choice next year, & them are the 2 I have decided to pick from as well.
  24. DieselTech
    Yep 4-5oz should make a real nice totebag.

    I been diluting my fiebings dye with denatured alcohol. That's what I have been doing since I first started using fiebings dye. I Have not had any issues yet. I do a 1:1 mix ratio if I want darker colors. I do a 2:1 mix ratio if I want lighter colors.
