To the right person they could fetch some big bucks. Especially if they are operational.

Rocky Mountain leather has your horse rump leather!

Looks nice. I like your design. Great work.

Don't take anything apart!

Nice work. Looks awesome. Can't wait to see the matching suspenders.

I bought 3 different plates & feed dogs for my cobra class 4 thru @Patrick1 on the forum here. I got the #23 & #25 narrow plates & feed dogs. I also bought the holster plate & 1 other i cant think of at the moment.

I guess I don't get what your asking. I don't think your stitch spacing should change. I got the the narrow feed dogs & needle plates for my cobra class 4. If anything the stitch spacing probably gets better.

Looking good! Are you going to sew down both sides of the belt as well? Or does that particular pattern, not support such? Thanks.

Nice work. Looks great! Did the resolene make the leather that glossy? Or did you add another technique to get it to Shine like that? Thanks. -
Nice work. Looks good. I made mine from pressure treated mahogany.
-
Nice work. They both are works of art. Both beautiful.
-
Can you post a few pictures of it. I am betting somewhere here has seen 1 & can give you some more info on it. Thanks.

Lmao I could be wrong too for all I know. But I think I've heard them called that.

Looks nice! I like your snake head detail work on your belt billets.

Sheath construction and skiving
DieselTech replied to ThisIsMyFirstRodeo's topic in How Do I Do That?
Another option is to wrap the knife in saran wrap & wet form the sheath to the knife. So it is not rattley or flopping in the sheath. -
Thanks. Yeah i like to watch Joe work, he is laid back & very informative on teaching leather work. I've learned a thing or too from him.

Tandy has a nice moccasin pattern pack with 3 type of different moccasins types. You might look into it.
-
Thanks. Much appreciated. I will place a order with him. Can't wait to see your finished belt.
-
Nice work. It looks awesome so far. That is going to be a nice belt. If you don't mind, would you tell me a bit about Joe's pattern packs. Did it have the plastic type mylar patterns in it? Or was it paper patterns you transfered to mylar sheet. Thanks. I've been wanting some of his patterns & just curious what is all in the pattern pack.

What was the reasoning for using cosmoline on your leather products? Or did you use some cosmoline on some of your leather equipment, so it would not rust. & then it transferred to your leather product? Got any pics of said project in question? Thanks.

Here is the large bowtie leather cutting die.
-
The bowtie loops can be made with a leather cutting die. Or as Northmount mentioned a bleed knot can be made. Here is a pic of the cutter die. They make a larger die for handbags & such, but wanted to show you the die shape.

I don't own a Tippmann, but I do own a 441 class machine that I use the Tandy polyester 346 thread on. If I am sewing softer leather I can get away with a #25 needle. But if I go to a harder/more dense leather like saddle skirting I got to use a #26 needle with the 346 thread or the thread starts to break or fray. Also I am a newbie you could say to machine sewing.

Is the compressor side even needed. I guess I don't understand how that system works. Aren't you still going to need a vacuum? To me that looks like some type of air operated gate valve. I am interested in what you find out, because I will be buying a 801 type bell skiver next year, along with a 14" leather splitter.
