Hello Itch, thank you for the updates on the Fortuna machine. Your machine does an impressive job, I cant wait to try out my machine. I got to warn you about posting your email address in the open forum. Hacker harvests email addresses and soon you will be bombed with spam and viruses. If you still want to display your email use this format " Larryxd att gmail dot com " . Because the robots/agents they use do not catch this format. Delete or modify your email by editing the post, or talk to Johanna. The forum moderator can also help you. Email sent.

thanks

Hello Itch, by any chance do you still have the manual and part list? I just got a machine like this but not totally sure how to use it, thanks in advance.

It's been a while since you originally posted this. Just wanted to find out how the splitter is working for you. I heard that these older bottom feed only splitters are not that good at handling harder veg tan leathers but is good for thinner softer stuff. How is yours working? These bottom feed only splitters tend to be cheaper than top and bottom feed ones so I might be interested in finding one if they can handle the work. Also, if you don't mind me asking, around how much did you end up paying for it?

Hello Itch, i only thanked you via email but not in here so thank you for the file you sent me. I'm back here because i simply can't make the machine to work well, sometimes it does split and the next one it tears all the leather piece, sometimes it split at a certain thickness and without moving anything the next one is splitted differently, so i'm here asking for your help, back then you only sent me one file but when i read again this post you mentioned there are 2 files, any chance the solution might be around there? Or do you have any idea what could be happening?

Thanks in advance.

I have one of these machines and I am having problems with it, I put a new blade on it and sharpened it. But now it eats the leather and it is not right thickness.
