I also use the Versa Groover. In addition I use Bob Douglas' free hand groovers, sizes #1 & #2. I also have a J. Watt groover that I have installed a Douglas blade in. I never sew anymore without grooving first.

As far as I know, that is correct.

I don't want to hijack the thread, so if this is deemed a totally separate question I'll start a new topic.

Has anyone ever offered a stitch groover that has some sort of plate attached to the tip that would make the groove a fixed depth? It seems that all I've seen and tried rely on a constant pressure and deft touch to make sure the groove is the same depth around the piece being worked on. Seems to me that some sort of plate integrated into the cutting tip would be perfect to make this a non-issue.

Thoughts?

You can also find the Versa Groover at Sheridan Leather Outfitters (307-647-6679). They sell the whole line of Douglas tools.

Cheers.
