Members plantto Posted December 18, 2012 Members Report Posted December 18, 2012 This is used to hold the speed lace in place while the top splash die presses the speed lace into the eyelet of the boot. This is for a gotz type setting press. This broke where the speed lace sits in order not to bend the hook so I need a new one and for the life of me cannot find one. This is the type of machine it is being used on Quote
Members whiteeugene Posted December 19, 2012 Members Report Posted December 19, 2012 Does it have any marking on it. Quote
Members plantto Posted December 19, 2012 Author Members Report Posted December 19, 2012 It has a 401 marking on it but that is all I can see. We have had it forever and cant remember where we got it. Quote
Members David8386 Posted December 19, 2012 Members Report Posted December 19, 2012 A machine shop could probably make one up for you if you don't have any luck finding one. Just make sure you take all the parts with you and the hooks. David Quote

Members billymac814 Posted December 19, 2012 Members Report Posted December 19, 2012 Ohio travel bag has them, they are a little different(shorter) but you should be able to make it work, I have several and some of them are broken like yours and the others are starting to crack so Ill be needing one too. They are more expensive than you'd think they should be. I've seen them other places too but can't recall where, probably a finder that supplies the shoe repair trade as well as shoe systems plus should have them. Quote www.mccabescustomleather.com
Members WinterBear Posted December 22, 2012 Members Report Posted December 22, 2012 (edited) Looks like Zack White has the dies too, or something similar, in two different sizes. http://zackwhite.com...ection=0&page=1 Edited December 22, 2012 by WinterBear Quote I used to be an Eagle, a good ol' Eagle too...
