Looking for punch or manual clicker press

Post by Kilkenny »

A punch along the lines of the Heritage Hand Press, punches holes, sets rivets, spots, snaps, etc.

Or a *manual* clicker press.

I've got a friend doing some small size leather pieces on a volume that's hard to keep up with cutting and punching by hand and I'm looking into other options.

Might be interested in a foot press. Space and price considerations push me toward the smaller hand model, but a foot press isn't out of the question.

I have 3 foot presses, only need one with my other machinery, and could hook you up with one. I will take a pic and send it to you. The cost getting it to you is more the problem. The press is around 3 feet wide by 2 feet deep, approx 30 inches tall. I have $100 in it and would take that for it. We can work out some arrangements to meet if you would be interested in one.

If you only need a small hand machine, I am using the ones I have, I have them set up for different snaps and such, but might be able to lay hands on one for you. Seems like I could pick them up for around $50 a few months back, if my buddy still has a few.

If you or your friend have a drill press, you can fit the hammer style leather punch handle in it, throw a hunk of teflon on the table and use that. Just use the lever to punch, do NOT turn the motor on. Works pretty slick.
It looked better in my head....
Damnit.
