Ian Posted June 6, 2009 Report Posted June 6, 2009 (edited) Hey, just found this one on Ebay - not a tippman, but a lot less $ http://cgi.ebay.com/NEW-Manual-Hand-Crank-...%3A2%7C294%3A50 Edited June 6, 2009 by Ian
Contributing Member UKRay Posted June 6, 2009 Contributing Member Report Posted June 6, 2009 I have both the Tippmann and the Tandy and wouldn't sell either - but I would say that the Tippmann is by far the better made item. It looks better and works better than any of the others I have tried. The real advantage lies in the guides that line up the leather before it is embossed. The Tippman guides actually work straight from the box - IMHO the Tandy ones need far too much adjustment and fiddling about before you can use it correctly. Ray

Ray Yes Tippmann is the way to go but far to pricy for my liking. I do not like the tandy. I want the ability to crease as well to emboss. We are coming out with our own hand drawn turned into embossed designs...

Sure, Tippmann is a high dollar product but IMHO, it is clearly the best on the market. I'm not happy with their system for creasing and would suggest you look for a BUSM rotary creaser. I have a couple of them and use them almost every day. They are absolutely invaluable. If you use the Tippmann for creasing and embossing you will spend far too long changing rollers. I like 'one machine, one job' wherever possible. Let me know when you have some rollers for sale! Ray
