Lippy Report post Posted October 8, 2013 Tim George of Hamley & Co. in Pendleton, OR is famous for his rawhide braiding. On a slow evening the other night I found a couple of videos on Youtube showing him in action (let's say slow action) cutting strings, etc. He's one of the best full time braiders. If you do a search on Youtube you'll see he's featured in about five videos. Cheers! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TXAG Report post Posted October 9, 2013 Holy cow, that is a big string cutter! Any idea where you'd get one of those or did he make it himself? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lippy Report post Posted October 10, 2013 It looks similar to the Hansen String Cutter with added micro adjusters. http://www.hansenstringcutter.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Leatherpownder Report post Posted October 10, 2013 Tim built that cutter and mine. He is a very good braider. His cutter has the fine adjustment that the Hansen doesn't. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I wonder how much one like that would cost...looks very nice... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Leatherpownder Report post Posted October 12, 2013 He does sell them, give him a call. He's usually at Hamley's early in the day. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tanthathide9 Report post Posted October 13, 2013 How does the fine tuning work? Since it does resembke the hansen which is what I own....its self explanatory obviously but how much of a benefit is it. Im having a hard time explaining what im trying to ask but ill post anyways and hope someone can understand what im asking. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Leatherpownder Report post Posted October 13, 2013 The fine adjustment works by being able to adjust the depth a little without loosing it all together when the depth ring is let go. Not so critical on large string but does matter a lot on smaller string. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tanthathide9 Report post Posted October 13, 2013 (edited) That was so cool watching those two videos, amazing. Thanks for posting that information. It was really cool. Its aggravating (probably the wrong word to use) more inspiring to see him do it with such ease and precision he makes it look simple.
