I personally will not have another skiving machine that does not have an aspirator. That is a suction devise that helps the leather not get caught up on the feed wheel or stone. quite a few you tube videos will show this happening. you can PM me if you would like to know more and I will give you my phone number. Also if you check my you tube it will show a little on a skiving machine in use. Brian Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Brian Hi thanks for the advice, the machine has been sold already, as I am new in this area, I know a very little about the leather machines, I am still looking for a 2ndhand skiving machine, do you have any suggestions? Cheers. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RockyAussie Report post Posted November 8, 2017 I would try first off Texon Australia and ask for John Mertsis or Spirro - 0394640744. They have been one of the main suppliers of machinery to people in the shoe making trade for many years. These are not a quick and easy machine to learn how to use properly and I would recommend that you try and get to use one with someone that knows what they are doing and can show you how and what to adjust. They are an essential machine when manufacturing but I have seen a lot of people run into trouble not being able to use them or get someone to show them. Are you in the Brisbane area? If so I can ask some one at J.A.Brooks down there who would be best able to help you with it. Regards Brian Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
