Members Heespharm Posted March 4, 2018 Members Report Posted March 4, 2018 I got this tool in a bundle from a cobblers tool set... I have no clue what it is... the brass collar slides off and it’s really pointy anybody know? Quote
bikermutt07 Posted March 4, 2018 Report Posted March 4, 2018 I am just guessing, but it looks like someone that you might put heat too. 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. From Texas but in Bossier City, Louisiana.

That was my guess like a burnisher for heels and the brass collars keeps the hot wax from dripping on your hand or something Quote

Yeah, but I beat ya to it! Now, what the devil is it doing in with cobbler's tools? Amongst a saddler's I can reckon cos these are used on horses too sometimes BTW, very miniature ones are used on humans to relieve certain ailments Edited March 4, 2018 by fredk Quote Al speling misteaks aer all mi own werk..
