Rossr Posted February 27, 2018 Report Posted February 27, 2018 Just a great topic.. One of the best I have seen on here. There is so much to be gained from seeing each others workspaces and the ideas generated by that. Thanks again @Mjolnir Ross Quote

There is so much to be gained from seeing each others workspaces and the ideas generated by that. Thanks again @Mjolnir Ross Yep, I have been semi motivated to change it all up. I gathered some cabinets from a demo. They are almost ready to install. That will make the wife happy, since they have been in the dining room for a month. I also have plans for a spray booth thanks to an unexpected gift from @Mattsbagger. Quote 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.

Mostly moving out the rubbish so I can actually see my workshop, and set up an area where I can actually work.

Members AdamPCain Posted March 3, 2018 Members Report Posted March 3, 2018 New addition to my work area from @Gregg From Keystone Sewing a 1541s with a speed reducer. I found a laser on ebay for $18 and had to make a mount, it turned out to work out great. I just set the laser to what ever line I scribe or right onto the needle. Next machine I am going to get a bell skiver and an electric edge creaser. I can't stop buying tools I have an addiction to getting new things. Quote
alpha2 Posted March 3, 2018 Report Posted March 3, 2018 I love the laser! Can we get a close up of your installation? Quote So much leather...so little time.

Members bullmoosepaddles Posted March 4, 2018 Members Report Posted March 4, 2018 @AdamPCain what is the clamp called, or where does one find one like it? I use a laser to align certain cuts in my wood shop. This is just a great idea for the sewing machine. Thank you for sharing. Quote

We have some similar to this in our warehouse. Quote 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....
