Members SmilinJim Posted January 31, 2008 Members Report Posted January 31, 2008 (edited) Hi folks Not only was there a crash on the site but I had a few problems too. This is my final 'design?' for my lace maker and splitter. They are for smaller lace, I've made 1/16 inch and very thin, up to 3/8 or so. I've lost the addresses of several of the people that wanted some so pm me with an address if still interested. I should be sending out the ones I have addresses for this weekend. Still have yours Jacque (Horsehairbraider) The lace maker works just like the Tandy plastic one except it is adjustable. If you would like to make your own then I'll be glad to send pics and dimensions and some of my 'explanations. If anyone has already made something similar let me know as I would like to improve as much as possible. Would like to be able to add beveling if I can work that out. Keep on Smilin Jim Edited January 31, 2008 by SmilinJim Quote
HorsehairBraider Posted January 31, 2008 Report Posted January 31, 2008 Glad to hear you are still up to this! I'm anxious to try one out. I sure understand about "crashes" - computers are great when they work, but then sometimes they quit (or crash) and you can't figure out why. Good thing cars don't do that...

Members Rawhide Posted January 31, 2008 Members Report Posted January 31, 2008 (edited) Jim, I'd be interested in trying to make one. Are you selling the plans? If so, how much? Let me know. You can email me as well here. Edited January 31, 2008 by Rawhide Quote Marlon
Members SmilinJim Posted January 31, 2008 Author Members Report Posted January 31, 2008 Hey folks Sorry about no pic on the other post, still got some problems. Hope it loads this time. As for selling the plans, sorry I'm not, but I am giving them away. If ya make one and it pleases ya then let me know, if you want to send something then do so. Doesn't have to be money. A nice rock, an interesting piece of wood, nothing extravagant. I am going to sell some of the sets so if interested then pm me, maybe we can trade something. Keep on Smilin Jim Quote
Members Rawhide Posted January 31, 2008 Members Report Posted January 31, 2008 Ok. I would like a copy of the plans my email is in my previous post. Just click on the word "here". Thanks for the offer. Mucho gracias. Marlon Quote Marlon

Members SmilinJim Posted February 3, 2008 Author Members Report Posted February 3, 2008 Well, here are the 'plans' for my simple splitter. It works great on strings up to about 1/2 inch. If you have any questions please feel free to ask Johanna, if I need to post this somewhere else just let me know Keep on Smilin Jim Quote

Members Spider Posted February 4, 2008 Members Report Posted February 4, 2008 Hey Jim, You are awesome for sharing this great design. Although I might not be able to make this for the lack of tools I will be happy to know it's here. I love seeing great designs. Thank you Quote From the insane mind of SPIDER... http://spiderflesh.com Myspace: Spiderflesh Facebook: Spiderflesh George
