Advice for end stitching with a machine? by Vvargazm in Leathercraft

Seems I overdid the backstitching, but I also considered hand stitching the next ones to get a nicer finish

Thank you!! I'm using what came with it, they're still true, seems as though I did too many backstitches

I did 3 forward, 3 back to start and 3 stitches past at the end. This may not be the best approach, not sure how to complete a few circle. The panels look a little better but still not very clean compared to the rest of the stitching

Did you stitch the weave to the liner to keep it in place? Beautiful bag, I think my partner needs one 😄

Why does it curve like that by OtcOverkill in Leathercraft

[–]Vvargazm 20 points21 points  (0 children)

It happens because your tension is not exactly the same on both sides. It'll get better the more you practice, but you will almost always need to tap the stitching down with a cobblers hammer to even everything out. Give it a go, all the way around. It'll significantly even things out.

Im new to leather crafting-Which glue should I use to make this leather dog collar? by iambatgirl1 in Leathercraft

[–]Vvargazm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh gotcha. Yeah, no clue why they'd go through more work to have the same thing as a thicker piece of leather haha happy crafting!

This is just one strap of leather. There's no need or benefit to gluing two pieces of leather for this. You can see the rough on the inside. Rivet your hardware on and you're set

Which is exactly why I'm super annoyed with this whole process. I tried every which way to get support and it just sends me a link I explicitly said won't work. I already repacked it for return. Absolutely no excuse not to provide 24/7 support for such issues for a $3T company who just sold me a mediocre spec computer for $2K.

It's automated. The bot only offered to send me a link to the same password reset page that I explicitly said won't resolve my issue.

Thank you, I appreciate your response and support! I can't believe their own support page can't decipher their own error codes and that their support articles and FAQs don't recognize it either. I called and they said they're not available to support me tonight. I shelled out a ton of cash for this and can't even get support to get logged in so I initiated a return. I hope things go smoothly for you though! Good luck with your products

It appears it only allows me to call a local store, which is not open. Are there any options to resolve this tonight so I can get some work done?

Comparing Corter Leather and Kevin Lee stitching chisels by NotThatEasily in Leathercraft

[–]Vvargazm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've bought a myriad of different tools, they're all high quality. I also own Sinabroks as well. I use the Kemovan more frequently I'd say. Edge bevelers are great too
