My Mom used her 1950 Singer home machine to sew some of my early Knife sheaths. They were around 1/4" thick. Thin goatskin, and canvas should be within the realm of a good home unit. Seems everyone here has a machine at home.

Then again, you said that you have time, so maybe there is a lot of hand stitching in your future :wacko:

Are you located in Singapore? Or is that just where it passed through on its way out? I'm not up on all of the different country flags :blush:

Something else to look at would be covers for E-readers like the Kindle.

Too bad the UK military wouldn't buy them from you. Could always market them to video games as authentic military grade hides.

Big Gun, yes I am in Singapore. I've been looking at youtube videos of sewing machines in action. The aerostitch is something i would want once I have a steady job. I'm even daydreaming of clicker presses and dies! Talk about dreaming big.

Anyway, thanks for all the great suggestions :cheers:

To all those who chipped in with suggestions, just thought I'd update that a week ago, the lady (Kim) who bought the leather received it and was kind enough to send me a pic of the first thing she did with them. I thought they looked great!

Cool, thanks for the update.

You laugh at me because I am different. I laugh at you because you are all the same.
