Double C, I think it's my mistake, I was talking about industrial clicker presses like this one,

post-11002-0-68050400-1434116179_thumb.j

You place the hide, place all your dies at once (4-6 dies per wallet and I normally do a couple or more at the time), swing the arm, click, swing off the arm, move the dies (you can normally click a couple, three times before needing to separate the leather - depending on what type of dies), swing back the arm, click, repeat, one hide done. Less than 3-4 min, max. So with this kind of clicker it is very much possible to make it in this time frame. But obviously this is not the kind of clicker you are talking about.

And no, I don't own one of these (cost more than £3500 - I rent them per hour, so it wouldn't make sense to me to be a reseller, besides I am a firm believer that one has to choose what kind of business one wants to do - personally I make and sell leather goods only, if I owned the machinery and only manufactured for others I might have done so, but now that's not the case.)

Anyway, I feel I might have offended you, considering the tone in your answer and that wasn't my intention. Just do what you feel like doing and good luck.

No Conrad I wasn't offended and that's the thing about computers, it's hard to understand the emotion behind the typed word. I just couldn't imagine how anyone could click a whole hide at once or do all those things in 15 minutes. Now I'm finding out the commercial, big clickers vs. the one I intend to buy. I make leather goods too but doubt from what I've read here clicking for others would keep me from being able to continue to do that. I work 3 farmer's markets a week, and sell on etsy and FB too and getting ready to build a website so I will be able to keep pretty busy without additional clicking :) It just seemed like it might be a viable option if I could do someone else's while I was doing mine. Thanks for you comments I really appreciate them. Cheryl
