What Is This Tool Called, And Where Do I Find It?

[thefanninator]

I got a PDF file and printed it out. It's got a lot of stuff on it but I'll just include what I was looking at purchasing.

Fileteuse M3000, 1 output 0 to 16 V, mono 110 V 60 Hz, without handle - €180

Flieteuse/1002 cork handle - €70

Iron with guide F - €74

Single iron S 0,5 standard - €70

Iron to apply wax - €76

Convert to dollars and add in shipping + customs and it's over $600, closer to $700.

My quote was good for one month and I was quoted these prices 4/24/2014

Thanks a lot for the reply. I got basically the same quote with regards to these specific items. I suppose you dealt with Jose? I tried making payments to the stated bank account on the pro-forma but it didn't work. Just waiting to hear from them now. Thanks again.

Are someone use this dye for edge with irons http://mando.fr/fr/consommables/327-teinture-pour-tranche.html

[mikesc]

I read this thread ( and also the thread about the regad edge / filet tool from mando in France ) last night while looking around the site here, got me thinking, so I researched a while and made some phone calls.

First, I spoke with Beraud, their minimum size is indeed 1kg ( they also do 5kg , 10kg etc ), they won't do smaller ( like 250gr - would be about 250ml or a half pint ) , but, as I used to get my custom paints made for me in small quantities here in France, I can get smaller containers ( metal or shatterproof plastic ) for paints etc.

Beraud are happy to supply me at "trade prices" ( being a French registered business helps to get better rates ) colours in sizes of 1kg and upwards.

I can "split" Beraud's into 250gr ( or around half a pint containers ) and send to USA or to UK etc, I'd prefer to send more than just one 250gr container at a time , but if someone only wants one small container of just one colour ( the shipping to the USA or UK might hurt for just one, but I'll know more when I get shipping quotes in next week ), I can do it.

I'd prefer that say 4 people ordered 250 gm of the same colour(s) so I'd not be out of pocket or "stocking" ( I just dont want to get stuck with any of this stuff myself as I dont use it, we make mainly lingerie and adult stuff, use mostly red and black leather, I dont' have use for a lot of what you guys use, but If I can help out with French suppliers or sources, then as I said in my "intro post", I will try my best .

Beraud are sending me colour swatches and pricing overnight ( my time ) , I should have them by midday Friday.

Anyway, I'll post when I do get them.

Next..the edge tools that some of you saw on the mando site, I phoned the Boss ( Mr Regad ) of the company who actualy make them.

Another really nice guy, good sense of humour

He is working out "wholesale" prices for me, he'll send them on to me next week ( he's very busy until the weekend, and in France few people work weekends ), pricing should be better than mando are offering, he is also perfectly happy making them to run on 110V ( so no need for transformer boxes etc ) and with USA type plugs for me, that "detail" should not cost any extra as he has already made some for export in bulk in the past.

They make all their stuff "in house", control boxes, handles, tips etc, so 110V or 220 V is all the same to him, as long as I don't ask him for just one control box. He hinted that 5 is a nice start number for him.

Again, this is not at all the sort of thing that I'd use for our own work, so I 'm not going to buy them for us, but I'm happy to get "trade" pricing and pass it on, again I won't know prices for shipping until next week. Depends on total weight of each package.

Hope this can be of use to you guys ? ..Mike

I'm "double posting" this into the "edge paint" thread and "the what is this tool" thread, because I don't know who is following which thread, if that is a problem for mods or admins please move the ots or paragraphs as you see fit, long as it still makes sense

Any other French sppliers and sources that anyone would like contacting let me know, I'm gradually reading old threads here to get a better feel for the place, these two threads I found, there have probably been others, as the kind of equipement and paint/inks/dyes that many of you use is not the kind of thing that I'd come across making what we make then I can't "suggest", but I can always make phone calls etc, and usually get good pricing.

Please,

Tannery haas for their barenia leather seems to be hard to find for the bespoke craftsman.

Thanks Mikesc, shall we use private messages to post our needs or? Personally I'm interested for both...

re Tannery Haas ..OK, I'll try to get them on the phone tomorrow ( Friday ).

I'll let you know ( maybe in a new thread so as not to "hijack" this one too much ( apologies to the OP ) what they say re prices / rates etc.

I just read ( since you mentioned them ) some articles about them in English and French , and one "in depth" article with some great photos ( in French ) took a quick look at their site, nice , but looks like they would be expensive, especially given who are their major clients, again I wouldn't normally use the kind of leather they sell for clothing ( we use some calf, but not in the pale colours ) , and I probably wouldn't want to ( couldn't afford to ) pay what I expect would be their prices..

But "nothing ventured" etc etc .

Really interested to know the prices from Mr Regad. Can you also find out if he has a list/catalogue of all the available tips (for the handle) and their usage? I am looking for a circular tip which is not available on Mando. Thank You.

[DavidL]

for the heating tool - fineleatherleatherworking is now selling it for roughly 650 or 700 for one handle, one size tip and the base. Could be a different brand but looks to be the same quality. It is on presale right now.

Surprised he doesnt have any stock of italian edge paint. If enough people ask about it he will most likely start stocking it.

Hi mikesc,

I'm currently living in Paris and would also be interested in the wholesale quote from Regad. My french isn't good enough to speak to them so I'd be happy to get the information through you.
