To add on to my recent post about some of the old family heirloom tools we use in the shop- our newest purchase…today I picked up this old roughly 1920’s model Singer Cobbler Patch machine from my Uncle’s Shoe Repair Shop.

One things for sure, they really don’t make them they way they used to!

Any fire owned logo design businesses out there want to trade some logo design for some leather work? I want to update my brand to more of an old school look to get put on some hats and shirts.

👉🏻We have used Black Helmet Mafia Graphics for quite a few other things but at last check a while ago he was backed up. Dude is definitely good at what he does 🤙🏻

A quick video of our Radio Holster assembly.

A few facts about some of the tools:
1. The anvil was passed down and was the actual anvil my Great-Great Grandfather Meeks used on his farm in Chiefland, Florida.
2. The Shoe Stand & Last was from my other sides great-grandfather and used in his Shoe Repair that he moved from Sicily in 1909. That shoe repair is still in business in Chattanooga TN and ran by my Uncle.

Using these tools daily is like a step back in time. I often wonder about the things those tools have been through.

One thing I’ve always tried to pride myself in is the “small details” you know, the small monotonous tasks.

Edges can often times be overlooked and the focus driven to the front because that is most often all that is seen. I go through 3 separate sanding steps to try and blend the two layers of leather together to make it look as one. After the 3 step sandings, it’s off to the high speed burnisher that was hand made from a solid piece of Cocobola Wood. Once that is finished, I use a bench grinder with a cotton buffing wheel to really make that shine come out. Some people thought it was an “edge coat” that gave it the shine. Nope, just sanded leather, and leather dye. We hope if you have bought a Front from us, that you see I try to cover all the “small details”.

That Tan with the hand tooling and white stitching just hits different. Tried and True and probably my favorite color combo throughout the years.
