Those are super cool and they look solid. I got nothing new to add other than what folks have already said. Try making or getting into some carpentry groups on Facebook to get the word out too. I loathe social media but made a profile specifically for pushing my stuff, not that I've gotten around to making it function yet...

As for moving faster. The clicker is the way to go, I'm sure. Cowboy offers a 10 ton that runs on household ( 110v ) electricity. It's 3 grand but for a small business I think that's an obtainable goal. It will probably click 3x faster than a hand system, maybe more.

The CB-10 Runs on 220V power.   Just did an update to our page on it.  http://www.solar-leather.com/10-ton-cb-10/

Modifying a bearing press is a very effective way to get a manual clicker.  However, unless you use heavy plate and lots of vertical stiffeners, the outside edges can flex too much.  So use more metal when you build it.   When in doubt, add more steel.  :)

Thanks for the correction, Alexander. My bad.

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.
