With the BG 180° Convertible Hand or Foot Press, we set out to engineer a single press that included everything to be expected in the first and last press leather workers, makers of handmade goods, and production facilities ever need. We researched presses from past and present, discussed needs from our clients, and ended up with something we hope you and the industry will love.
Available as an individual hand press, the BG 180° Convertible Hand or Foot Press can be converted to an independent standing table press or a full foot press pedal system. In this video we go over the unique features of the press in depth and show the conversion to the table and pedal systems.
Use for setting:
-Rivets
-Snaps
-Grommets
-Feet
-Studs
-Magnets
-Hole punching
Suitable for:
-Leather
-Canvas
-Webbing
-Biothane

One of the best press systems on the market! I absolutely love mine and can’t thank BuckleGuy enough for all that they do for their customers!

Thanks so much!

Santa just received my updated Christmas List. As a one handed leather worker I have been searching for a system like this for five years.

[@bc2.by.design]

Will this machine fit Weaver's spot setter dies? They look like they may be too long for this machine, but it's hard to tell from photos and the videos.

Hi there! It's possible with the West Coast adapter. Please check this chart and compare the West Coast dimensions with your dies: cdn11.bigcommerce.com/s-e77e4/images/stencil/1280x1280/products/6514/42922/Setter_Die_Chart__13723.1699919848.jpg?c=2

I'm assuming the west coast upper dies utilize a set screw to tighten the die since theyre not threaded? I'm looking to convert from a west coast machine to yours.

[@Buckleguycom]

That's correct. West Coast are non-threaded, and a hex nut from the side is used to lock the dies in place.
