Thread: Stitching pony

Take your pick https://www.youtube.com/results?sear...+stiching+pony

One thing I will say, try and avoid sticky outey bits. I just have a carriage bolt with a wing nut to provide clamping pressure and if I'm stitching a larger item there is a lot of spare thread flying around every time you pull the thread through a hole. It's not really a problem but can be annoying if the thread is constantly getting caught on the pony.
I'll get around to making another one and make it streamlined.

Any suggestions on size, materials, jaw materials, tightening mechanism.
I've been trying to find information from books, Google etc.
Any help appreciated.

Tabletop version? Yes sure
This is the one I made



Mine is made of solid timber but I've made plans and instructions how to make it out of plywood on a leatherworking forum here:
Hello from Melbourne, Australia - Page 2 - Member Gallery - Leatherworker.net

keep in mind this is not my design, a bunch of people sell those on etsy and this is where I got the idea from, I just made some some improvements and changes of my own.

Enjoy.

Here is a real basic one I made a while ago. It aint pretty, but it does what its supposed to.
