Nice sturdy horse you got there. Looks like it will last forever ! WTG I made a gun stock checkering bench several years ago and equipped it with a Craftsman 4-1/2" swivel vice to hold a standard Brownell's checkering cradle. This year I caught the "leatherbug" and my first project will be a 12" long sheath for a digging tool. My plan is to make a set of wooden jaws that will adapt to the vice for leatherworking and voilà I'll have a stitching pony too ! The Al Stohlman Stitching Pony, shown in the back of his book The Art of Hand Stitching Leather, has a jaw assembly that appears to be perpendicular to the seat. I Googled "farm woodwork" , then copied, pasted & hyperlinked the address below where you can see the plans for another stitching pony that has the jaw assembly tilted to the left (when operator is seated). After arriving at the hyperlinked address, just scroll down to page 99. I notice you made yours the same way and was just wondering if a tilted jaw assembly has any great advantage over jaws that are perpendicular-to-the-seat. Anyone else that wants to add their comments is welcome too ! http://books.google....ontcover&dq=far Thanks much. Todd Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
