- Stitching Thick Leather On A Sewing Machine. Sewing two and three layers of saddle skirting leather. You may notice that I did hit a stainless steel dee with the machine needle and it bent the needle slightly but was able to finish the sewing.

Спасибо Вам! Если бы я жил в Америке, то напросился к Вам в ученики! Люблю работу с кожей очень!
It looks simple and easy when an expert does it, but SO many things have to be right before that can happen. Right sewing machine, right needle, right thread, right tension setting, right stitch length, right speeds, and years of experience learning what those are, and how to do it. Not even to mention maintaining and adjusting the machine for peak performance. And it takes skill, confidence, and bravery to sew afterward on work that has been so long and painstakingly tooled and carved, that could all be ruined in an instant through a sewing mistake. You have my respect, sir! You have bent a needle? Nobody will ever know or care because the result was perfect.
You are right a lot of things have to line up and really focus on the project.
This was very satisfying to watch. A master craftsman at his sewing machine.
Thanks!
Really wish you had some sort of an online shop for smaller leather pieces for viewers in different states. I love your leatherwork!
I'll bet your shop smells amazing... Can I please live there?
Enjoy watching your videos and seeing your post

Always a pleasure to watch. Happy Sunday to you and yours.

Great Leatherwork and a grand machine
Thank you very much!
Bruce, if you were buying your sewing machine again would you stick with Cowboy or go with a Cobra? I believe you mentioned somewhere that your brother uses a Cobra machine in his shop.
I would like to try a Cobra next time I get a machine.
Put a Servo motor on it!
I have a brand new servo in the box but I really like this one that makes a little noise.....
A random question ( seldom answered.......) why is it that these machines and similar machines pull the lock down on tight corners. The lock shows down ( on the underside) on a few stitches and then evens out again. Top and bottom tension have nothing to do with this problem. Thanks. Didnt know where to ask so..... took a chance :)
I do think needle size and thread size do play a role in how my machine sews and works on corners.
@@cheaneysaddles Thank you for your prompt reply Bruce. We also find that the combination between needle and thread size is a telling point. But like in life there are always variables that sneak up :) We are using 180s Schmetz needles and Ticket 8 ( 346 ) thread and at present it seems to be behaving with a smaller stitch hole . That is what we are aiming for continually. Thanks again ( from Cape Town )
Hi Bruce, which sewing machine do you think is better, Cowboy CB4500 or Cobra Class 4? Thanks Joe
I think it is what you get used to using. My brother has several of the Cobra's plus my daughter has a Cobra and they get along fine with their machines. The only way I can answer is that I would not trade my machine for one of theirs. Thanks for asking good question!
I am about to purchase a heavy leather sewing machine, so I have been digging into the differences between Cobra Class 4 and Cowboy CB4500 to determine what machine is the best value. The Cobra Class 4 and the Cowboy CB4500 and the Juki 441 heads are made in the same factory on the same assembly line. They are identical in every way until the Cobra gets painted brown and the Cowboy gets painted tan. Cowboy has stepped up in my opinion with the addition of the Stainless-Steel presser feet and needle plates to eliminate the possibility of rust due to the moisture in the leather, the Extra-Large Flywheel, the Wax/Lube pot for the thread and a Better LED Light. Cowboy also has a bit Heavier Built Speed Reducer. All of that is not included with the Cobra. I contacted Cobra they did not contest what Cowboy had told me, all Cobra would say is Cobra has a limited lifetime warranty, but Cowboy also has a limited lifetime warranty, so Cobra did now win any points from me on that. They both come with a heavy built table/stand and a Servo motor. They are both around $2900. I have spoken with Neal at Neal Saddlery and Teleto Bob at Teleto industrial sewing, about the cowboy machines I also contacted Aron at Makers Leather, Heather Bradt at Leather Machine Co about the Cobra Class 4. This is the accumulation of the information I received from all of them. My conclusion is both are good machines but, as of today's date you get more for your money with Cowboy.
hello such good work how much is the machine
tolindsewmach.com/cb4500.html This is where I purchased my Cowboy CB-4500
What is the needle size
200 most of the time with 346 white Polyester thread sometimes a 230 needle on thick stiff leather. My Cowboy machine also works with nylon thread but I really prefer Polyester thread for some reason.
You mention you're using polyester thread. Could you use nylon, instead of polyester thread, as well?
Yes, absolutely it sews about the same with nylon thread.
