Guys & gals it's not much, but I wanted to share my dogs new collar. 5oz Conceria Walpier Whiskey Dollaro leather, lined with 5oz veg tan left naked. This was more of practice for me with my new cobra class 4 sewing machine. It turned out pretty good other than I did skip a stitch on the turn around the ends. Its sewn together with neon blue & burnt orange 277 thread. Thanks for looking.

Thanks guys for showing & explaining how to remove & or adjust the brake. I will have to see if my cobra class 4 has that brake like @bladegrinder cowboy cb4500 has. Thanks.

Looks great. Nice work.

You need to resize your pics to a smaller file size. @Northmount be able to help you out with this.

Well I modified my flatbed attachment for Patrick1 flat extreme needle plates. It turned out good. Only thing required to modify it to fit the needle plates, was to mark the corners around the needle plate & file the table attachment in the corners around the needle plate.

@Dwight here is what bond arms holsters look like for their derringer's. They run about $80 to buy. Maybe these pics will help with the design phase.

Thanks Wiz for sharing that vid. Old beast sounds like a steam train rolling down the track. Also thanks for all the knowledge you share of these old machines. It is greatly appreciated.

Looks great! You did a nice job. May I ask what this machine was originally designed for? What was its main use? Thanks.

Welcome to the group. Bunch of great peeps here. Enjoy.

Nice machine. & Wow! Great looking bag. Nice work.

Yeah if you can get some better pics. Then measure the size of the stamp on the leather sheath. You could then send a pic & dimensions to 1 of many stamp makers & have 1 made. That might be a handmade stamp from long ago.

Looks good. Nice craftsmanship.

Thanks everybody. I will take all the advice you seasoned guys & gals have helped me with. I appreciate it.

Beautiful piece of work! Nice job looks great.

Thanks for the tip & tricks on the cobra class 4. I'm glad you shared this with me. I'm glad to see this & you were willing to share it. Thanks.

I think you might be able to use fiebings black dye & then thin the dye down to make a dark gray dye. I'm not 100% sure on this. But I think I've read it on this site somewhere.

I paid $396 dollars for shipping to my front door from Cobra/leather machine co.

Thanks. I appreciate it. So do most guys measure the overall stitch area to be sewn, then set your desired stitch on your machine & use a over stitch wheel to mark the piece being sewn? Or do they do the math for where the stitch will end on the piece being sewn? Also I have been able to recognize 3-4stitches from the end, whether I will be short or long on the last stitch. Lmao was just unsure what to do to compensate for it. Being a newbie & all on sewing machines. Thanks.

Is there any way you could get a better picture of the said stamp you are looking for? Or possibly sketch the design so it can be seen easier? Thanks.

Yeah I paid to have my cobra shipped to my front door. Lmao I dont have a truck, so I was limited on what I could do. It would have taken my forever to go to the shipping hub on my tractor.

I called Cowboy & Cobra, but not Techsew. Residential shipping from Cowboy was $200 higher than Cobra's residential shipping. I ended up with cobra class 4 because of the shipping cost.

Thanks bruce, I appreciate you clarifying for me, where each size of rivet & burrs are commonly used. Thanks.

Hennigan Engineering & Precision.

Thank you. I was wondering if I could do that. Or if it would miss a stitch. Thanks. I'll practice that for a bit.

I got these thru HE&P. There is a #20 extreme needle plate & feed dog that I have not yet purchased. It allows you to reliably use 92 thread & a #20 needle. Here is the needle plates & feed dogs I bought.
