New Tool Idea- Simple But I Don't Have The Expertise To Make One

Recommended Posts

I am looking for a tool maker to make what I know to be a new idea on a standard too. EVERYONE uses one who does any leatherwork.

Toolmakers ONLY need respond. I have a pending patent and need someone to make at least a working piece that I will have you make in quantity, or I will contact a commercial maker(Tandy, Weaver, etc)

I have no problem "going into business" with a private party (you) though.

We won't make millions, but I know that we will have many hundreds of orders.

Email me ONLY if you are serious and are capable of making tools

Could you be a little more specific about what is involved in the machining, might be interested.

Ed the Bearman" got some information to me that satisfied my earlier request. It had to do with an edge beveler that could do tight spots and corners.

I may ax the quest entirely before I invest any more into it.

If I proceed then I will go into more detail.

Anyone out there that would like a tool that bevels edges in really tight corners and inside curves????

thanks all

I'd be interested in such a tool.

Give me a shout if you want to talk about tooling. I have access to a couple of people who are machinists who can do lathe work, water jet, and cnc work.

Not to burst your bubble, but I have 3 from Bob Douglas and I haven't found a corner that I can't edge into or out of with them. And there are some mighty tight corners on my chap yokes. Bob calls them a turnback edger

.....it's basically a bissonette edger with the tip folded over...and they work quite nicely.

I like the turnbacks too, and the Vizzard edgers will do inside and outside corners well too.

Elton, Darcy, and Bruce,

you hit the nail on the head. Ed the Bearman steered me to the turnback edgers too.

Ah well.......".still a million bucks shy of being a millionaire!" (It's a wonderful life/Jimmy Stewart)
