Again, newbie here, but I'd read/watched vids where glue between two layers was not/should not be applied along the stitch line in order to avoid pulling the glue up into the stitch line.  And, to avoid gumming up the sewing machine.  That was what I was attempting to ask about.  It seems that you in fact do apply glue to the entire mating surfaces .

theyzz DEFINITELY glue under muh needles

In leather, yer fixina find a WHIOOLE BUNCH o' fellas determined ta tell ya they got the "real" way ta do it.  This was the reason for my "fade" video... they was fellas makin' HOUR LONG videos about that same thing, many of them claimin' they 'invented' that look. ALL of that was RIDICULOUS, so I showed how that kin be done in about 3 minutes once you got yer stuff ready.  Tell a story while yer doin it, STILL only take 3 mins to paint the holster and mag carrier.

Some fellas gonna tell ya ya gotta stand on yer left foot facin' east to sew leather, er whatever they makin' up this week

I suppose you could - theoretically - get some glue on yer needle if you CAKED IT ON THICK, but I have no idea how a guycould git glue up in the machine

All I have to say is ... lovin' the honesty here !!!       It is always hard to wade through all the "help" one gets when starting on new projects / hobbies. Thanks for being of real help; you've demonstrated that many, many times.

I'm all about not learning everything the "hard" way, but relying on the generosity of those like yourself.

I use Barge Cement, I have a Cowboy 3200 and I have never even noticed any glue residue on the needle

Maybe an obvious answer, but I can't get the page to load, just get an error message?

What page?  This whole thread loads just fine for me.  In the upper right of each post is a symbol you click on to share.  It will give you a URL for that post that you can share so we know what you are talking about.

I had a week or so a while ago where one of the 'relays' was timing out and giving me an error.  A trace route command showed what server was the problem.  It finally straightened out after the week or so.

The section at the bottom of a post is that user's 'signature'.  See JLS's signature below.  Not something that moderators manage.  If he has an error in it, or his site is no longer available, then you need to contact him.  Send him a message.  And by the way, you need to quote part of a post or tag the user so they get a notification.  I have turned notifications off on any posts that I make as I don't need that much overhead to contend with.  I just by chance saw your reply to me.

Notice I quoted your post.  So you get a notification.  You can also tag a user by typing the "@" symbol followed by the users name and picking it from the popup box.  Like this:
