Could you all please paste in links to the best leather-sewing videos you know of? I've got my first machine -- a 441 type -- on the way and am eager to start off right. Thanks for your suggestions.

Here's another one.

There is a videos page on the Toledo Industrial Sewing Machines' website, demonstrating setting up and using Cowboy 441 type machines.

Try to stick to the ones from the machine supplier.  Around here, you'll get a LOT of "advice" which is nothing more than someone repeating what they heard from someone else.. and may or may not be worth anything at all.  Seriously, I've received "advice' and "tips" and "recommendations" about machines from people who don't own that model (and in some cases, don't own one at all).

Oh, if your supplier doesn't offer any instruction, simple manual, etc... maybe get a new supplier?

Marking for later.

I'm not paying 80 bucks for a belt!!! It's a strip of leather. How hard could it be? 4 years and 3 grand later.... I have a belt I can finally live with.

Stitching is like gravy, it's only great if you make it every day.

From Texas but in Bossier City, Louisiana.
