Tips And Tricks To Using Rolling Edge Guide, Cowboy 3500?

[Tallbald]

I really should try before even asking, but through the years I've learned that asking questions BEFORE trying a tool can ease the way and prevent damage to stuff. I'll be making my first belt of laminated leather, two 5/6 thicknesses. Stitching will be about 3/16 inch from the edge. Can't find any videos about the roller guide accessory, but there's bound to be something I should know first....

As always folks. Thank you. Don.

Purdy simple stuff... set it and go. That swing away thing? Pay no attention - doesn't help much far as I can tell. I MUCH prefer the swing down version mounted above the feet.. where it actually CAN swing out of the way. The roller version,.. really not much more useful that a solid stop put there.

To be clear... is that 3500 just a smaller throat version of the 4500? Seems like the same accessories should work if that's true.

yes JLS my 35oo is a shorter throat than the 4500, and has an external bobbin winder instead of integral like the 4500. Thanks too. Don.
