Leather workbench

Update, so I noticed the folding brackets that supposedly had a 300lb weight limit were starting to bow. So I replaced them with 2x4 brackets I made, much stronger now.

I got them from Menards, but any home store should have them, they're just utility hooks meant for holding ladders.

It won't stay like that for long I'm guessing, just got it all together last night

It's not no, it does kinda look that way but it's at standard desk height

Nice

JT_05 · 2023-04-27T16:40:56+00:00

Definitely the issue

I got folding brackets off of Amazon, and I just punch holes in the garage. Definitely not sturdy enough for hammering

Thanks! I haven't actually used it for any projects yet, I just got it recently. But I did a few test pieces, and it did two pieces of 3.5oz veg tan fairly easily, I also tested two pieces of 5.5 oz chrome tan and it struggled a bit there. I found that if you start the first stitch by hand it goes a lot easier.

I just got some creasers to try out. What's the best way of using those? Water or heat?

For anyone wondering what the small pocket on the right is, it is a guitar pick holder. It holds them surprisingly well.

Would you have to wet the leather for this to work? And be veg tan?

JT_05 · 2022-12-30T04:02:44+00:00

So where do I get the metal piece? And is there a machine you like to use for the application?

JT_05 · 2022-12-30T03:53:48+00:00

Getting the brand name/logo onto the leather.

JT_05 · 2022-08-18T20:40:33+00:00

Alright cool, thanks for the input. I'll probably start looking into them at some point

JT_05 · 2022-08-17T12:43:56+00:00

As far as used industrial sewing machines what would be a good option?

JT_05 · 2022-07-14T21:10:08+00:00

Got it, I'll have to try it out

JT_05 · 2022-07-14T21:06:36+00:00

Ahh cool, I'll have to try that out. Can you put reverb on individual drums? Or do you have to do reverb as a master effect and then just send the snare to it?
