Ambassador Luke Hatley Posted June 30, 2007 Ambassador Report Posted June 30, 2007 Well after a few years of hard wear the old wallet gave up and fell apart so i decided to desighn and make a new one Howdy Don, Great looling Billfold. I was looking at the border tooling and i have the exact tool, the only marking on my tool is the # 8. thought it very unsual same tool this many miles apart. Luke.... Quote Luke
Ambassador Don101 Posted June 30, 2007 Author Ambassador Report Posted June 30, 2007 do you mean the embossing wheel on the inside? if so it is an old and popular patern used way back in the old west by saddlers up until a few years back McMillan used to make them i belive thats how the name is spelt not sure though, i have heard that they are no longer in buisness as friends off mine have tried to order tools from them and couldent get through, they made them in different sizes i have the larger one so if anny one knows where i could get the small embossing wheel please let me know as over here you dont find them, Don Quote
Ambassador Luke Hatley Posted June 30, 2007 Ambassador Report Posted June 30, 2007 Yes the embossing wheel is what i am refering to. I was told it could have been used in the Book Binding Business.The part of the world that you are in would be a place for these tools to be found. How would you have liked to have spent some time on the "101 Ranch" My ailas In SASS is Cactus Luke...(#26182) Quote Luke
