Can you use a smaller diameter button with a wider post diameter base? Or will the shaft of the post be too wide to flatten inside the button? I am talking of the male side bits, and not the spring/cap pieces.
Hi not sure if you're still reading / replying to the comments but was wondering if you know of any good companies that make custom dies for cutting polyester type material? Thinner than leather at 1-2mm. Wanting to have a few custom die cutters made. Thanks :)
Thank you for this great video! I was just wondering, does it take long to cool down?
Thank you so much for this video - I have followed your instructions & installed the same set-up on the table for a 246 machine. It’s working well! Thank you again!
Glad it helped
Thank you! Now I can fix my husband's jacket.
Thanks, I knew I wanted something like this so I can stop using the rawhide mallet for everything, but I wasn't sure about the basics of the press, like whether the plate was removable, or how to attach punches to it. Cheers!
What a lovely guy…taught me plenty…Thankyou😊
Glad it was helpful!
It’s been a very very long time since a new video has been posted. Has the channel changed to a different name/location or is this channel no longer active? Really enjoyed the videos.
Hello. Geordie will be returning to your screens very soon. I’m busy putting together a video which should be uploaded in the next few days. I’ve also re-branded the channel and will be starting afresh.
@@HobbyBloxs Awesome!
Doing god’s work 🥰
Extremely helpful and well done. Thank you.
very helpful mate thanks.
Your help sort me out. The bottom thread was looking flat and top thread was visible at the bottom. Proper tension settings that you described here helped me. Top tension screw does the job well. What i learnt by trying and trying is that the top thread have to be too tight, which seems odd at first. But once it is set to the proper tension it needs, you cannot differentiate between top and bottom stitches.
Thank you from Minneapolis.
I subscribed
Thanks Geordie just bought a used Jack want to modify it to slow it down just like you did appreciate your help
are you still doing leather work miss you
Hi. Thank you for your kindness. I am returning to UA-cam soon. Because of my illness, I can no longer do leather work, but I will be continuing with other tutorials.
Just bought an arbor press yesterday to do just this. Using the magnet is epic! Way easier than drilling the ram and plate for the tools. Thank you!
Saludo podrías dar un tutorial completo de cómo valencias la troquqdora para q corte uniforme ?
Bonjour Je débute en maroquinerie et j,adore vos vidéos, vous mentionnez que vous avez écrit deux livres, pourriez-vous nous donner les titres et sont-ils encore disponibles ? Merci d’avance et au plaisir de vous lire. 😍
This was really helpful, thank you. What are your thoughts about using a 1 ton Arbor press for hot stamping, die cutting and hot foil stamping, instead of getting a dedicated machine for each (i.e. instead of getting a hot foil stamping machine and a die cutting machine)?
Thanks so much for this tutorial! I had one question, could an Arbor press also be used for hot foil stamping?
Hello geordie how are you hope you’re doing fine. When will be your next video vlog? Take care.
Hello. I will be returning to your screens very soon. I’m busy making a new video as I write. Take care. Geordie.
Really nice video
Puerto Rico , donde Régulo el prensa tela para q no marque el cuero
@Geordie'sWorkshop may l ask where did you get your leather clicker dies? All the different shapes.
Amazing tutorial! I had never heard of hot foiling so I asked Cousin Google who gave me a YT link to Uncle Geordie. Now I can set up a die for the WT-90AS Foil Stamping Macine to accurately stamp personalized leather key rings! #Winning
Geordie, I have a question. I bought the machine and I can’t stamp foil paper on some type of leather. Do you have any trick?
Very nice. Thank you dear Sir! Regards from Los Angeles, California.
Hello, thanks for the videos I do find them very helpful, but I have a question for a problem I keep having. I have a cylinder sewing machine ikonix ks335, and I'm using nylon 69 which is what is recommended. However, the top thread keeps on unraveling (splitting) any information about this problem would be greatly appreciated, thank you from Las Vegas🎰

Get video!!! Where to get that 2 fully setup inusa? Thx
Hi Geordie, I just found your video today and am glad I did. This one piece of equipment will save me money with the different things it can do. I sew and dabble with a little leather. I am wondering if this machine could be used to cut fabric for name tags for garment as well? I meant to ask, are you still making these videos? This one is 4 yrs ago, I hate to bother you if you are no longer doing these videos. I am from Detroit, Michigan. Love your videos
Thanks to you, I made it. Thank you for the video.
Great video, thank you!
CAN STINGRAY LEATHER BE DIE CUT ON ARBOR PRESS
CAN STINGRAY LEATHER BE DIE CUT ON ARBOR PRESS
USA. As a complete beginner to sewing I thought your introduction was perfect. Always wondered what those various parts were. Looking forward to the next one. Thanks.
Geordie, Thanks for explaining the multiple uses for an arbor press. "arbor press for dummies"
Arbor presses are wonderfully useful in ways slow hydraulic presses cannot match. i buy mine used for much less than new and the big heavy ones often go cheap. A visit to your local steel supplier may yield cheap leftovers from cutting for previous customers and should you choose to fab more shop equipment like an arbor press stand (for which you can cut the pieces than have a welder finish weld if you do not weld) it's worth learning your local metal supply options.
Love your detailed info on this machine, and thinking of buying one myself. So I hope you can please tell me what largest size thread it will take, and thickest leather? Will it do harness, bridle and saddle (english style), or is it only for bags and purses etc? Belts maybe?
When using meths does it not impart the strong meths smell to the leather? When I watched this I was thinking would isopropanol work too, Thanks. Great series
What a great video! I had no idea how many ways you can do this. Actually, I thought it was beyond the average person's means or ability.
TY! But where do I get the carving stamps???
Thanks for the helpful instructions! One question though: what was the reason you used the pin tool with a hammer to punch a hole to make a hole on the first part but used a different tool, a puncher, to pierce the second part? Can we not use only one tool to pierce both parts?
Good video. Thank you for posting it.
Great video! Any chance you know how to fix the machine if it’s missing stitches?! Driving me crazy. Sewing about 5/6 stitches and then missing a few and then eventually stops stitching completely. I’ve tried to adjust all tensions but nothing working. Thanks!!
