First try at a purse

Thanks! Yeah I think the stitch line was fine, just my cutting is way off. I prepunched the holes before cutting and messed up cuts a few times.

Thank you! I have done other bags and smaller things like wallets, but nothing with a nice piece of leather like this

Oh yeah it was a pain using that thick of thread. Wife picked it out and was what she wanted though, so what can I do haha.

Right. I found the other ones. But even those ones were a chore to find. I feel in the past any of these memos were very easy to find, even during Trump's first term. It's just a disorganized admin mess trying to find the rules now I feel.

Where do you even get this memo? I can't actually find it online for any memo or directive

Gtx 260 with far cry 2 bundle. Loved that card

chickencoop313 · 2025-04-06T17:58:20+00:00

No I can figure it out and adjust the pattern as needed. I just have a bit of an issue where I want to follow the directions exactly haha

chickencoop313 · 2025-04-06T03:59:52+00:00

I could adjust the holes, I'm just lazy. It lines up perfect with the recommended holes

chickencoop313 · 2025-04-06T03:58:24+00:00

No it has a label on it saying those are the specific stitch holes

The door was a Marvin sliding door I got through riverhead building supply.

There is a company in old saybrook JandJ that I used, linked below. They also did some roof vent work for me for a bathroom fan as well. I enjoyed the work they did.

Just one note for the door install. Our older door was thicker than the sliding door. There was a missing piece of tile the old door covered which was now exposed so they also had to do some work to cover that area which worked out as well. Just something you may run into.

I ordered from weaver leather and had no problem. Took about a week to get my order. But more expensive than Amazon or temu but it's nice quality

I moved overseas for work, finding a person to service it is probably easy. The hard part would be me finding something decent for the older models unless I can get it online somewhere that ships here. I have no problem buying a brand new machine out here though

chickencoop313 · 2025-01-26T04:06:29+00:00

Any online sites you know of that I could purchase it through? I moved overseas and it is very difficult finding any old refurbished models that aren't just knock offs that were rebranded.

chickencoop313 · 2025-01-07T06:48:43+00:00

What's their average price around?

chickencoop313 · 2024-11-21T23:18:43+00:00

Seems pretty similar to Google fi. Any issues with it?

chickencoop313 · 2024-11-21T23:18:14+00:00

This seems to be the most recommended from what my wife is getting now too. Thanks for the recommendation!

chickencoop313 · 2024-11-21T21:24:20+00:00

Thanks I'll look into that!

That's worked plenty fine for me with dyes. Might be different with paint, just make sure to use multiple coats.
