Members cmantz Posted February 25, 2013 Members Report Posted February 25, 2013 I would like buy a spot setter. I am looking at the hand/foot machines from either Standard Rivet or Weaver. Does anyone have any recommendation on which is better? I know Standard comes with a 100% money back guarantee. Price is $595 and includes two dies of your choice. The one from Weaver is a little less expensive when you figure in the cost of the dies. Thanks Chris Quote
Members JJs Leatherworks Posted February 25, 2013 Members Report Posted February 25, 2013 I have no actual experience with either of these models, just have used a hand setter or hand press for spots to date. I too am considering a foot press and am leaning a bit towards the Weaver, mainly because of it's verstatility in doing much more than spots. In addition, last month received Weaver's quarterly newsletter/sales flyer in the mail and their foot press is on special until the end of March - it's not a big saving, but it all helps. There was a similar post by a member not very long ago and I would be curious if they decided and what they bought and how they like it so far. JJ Quote
Members cmantz Posted February 25, 2013 Author Members Report Posted February 25, 2013 Thanks for the info on the sale. I didn't realize they were running a special. I will check it out tomorrow. Quote
Members Dink Posted March 12, 2013 Members Report Posted March 12, 2013 We use the Heritage one from weaver, have been happy with it, and it has alot of available options Quote
Members Itch Posted March 12, 2013 Members Report Posted March 12, 2013 We use a Heritage foot press and also the little wonder from weaver..The foot press is a little more versatile with the larger throat.. Quote
