The only thing I find to be a little bit fiddly is setting up the guides to get a strap centered just where you want it. It's not terrible, just a little bit fiddly. - Bill Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's not terrible SAME with the bunkhouse embosser. So I just don't make ONE strap.. while I have it centered for that width of belt and that roller wheel, I make a bit more than I need before changing it out, so if somebody orders ONE (which has happened) I have one already ready (but don't store dozens of each design) Were we doing "production" work, wouldn't be a considereation, we'd just make BATCHES of each design while its set up Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Does bunkhouse rollers fit these? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JLSleather Report post Posted January 2, 2021 Doesn't look like it... some of those bunkhouse rolls are pretty big - these bars look too close together Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
billybopp Report post Posted January 3, 2021 Most rolls will fit. The shaft size is more or less standard for all of these. I've only tried one bunkhouse roll, and it's just a wee bit sloppy on the shaft. I don't know if that's just the one I got or if they are all that way. - Bill Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JLSleather Report post Posted January 3, 2021 I was referring more to the outside diameter of the bunkhouse rolls, not the bore size. I don't own the machine shown, so if somebody does and says it'll fit, then there you have it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Studio-N Report post Posted January 3, 2021 SOME will work. they all have a 1" bore, but the diameters vary. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
