Thank you for your video, this way is more expensive than buying a pony. ❤
That is a top-notch stitching pony. I'm glad I found this channel, I hope you keep producing these informative videos.

Hey Steve, great video, and stitching pony. Have you ever thought about making your videos without music? I think "maker" videos are best when we get to hear the sound of the tools and the making process. Anyways, great job! 👏

Add a maganet on each side to hold the needles when adjusting the leather. I like the end results. you did a good job. Good luck with your leather work. Remember, Practice, Practice, Practice,,,,

Very nice. I was surprised that with all the sophisticated equipmment, you did not use a dado and you used a hack saw to cut wood.

A small modification you might want to do is to put two small magnets on both sides of the clamp so they can hold any needles currently in use.

Great job! But I hate you... I'm jealous. Your tools and shop area are undoubtedly the envy of everyone who watches this video. I couldn't concentrate on what you were doing. I spent the entire video looking at the tools!!! I also picked up on your opening statement... "My wife is getting into leather...". Good one 👍 Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for watching Rolf believe me I’ve had many many years with rubbish tools. I could still do with more space it’s a bit cramped in there
I have been looking for a good video on making a stitching pony and your design is brilliant. When I saw you fold this closed I actually gasped. I don't suppose there's any chance of a plan for this us there?

Hello, very nice indeed ! Is the large hole angled at 11:54 ? It always amazed by people drilling perfectly straight like that... I would never dare, unless I have at least 50 wood pieces left... maybe I should give it a try, my drill press is wobbling too much now, useless.

Thanks for you nice comments the hole is elongated by hand with the drill so the arm of the pony can open wider since the bolt goes through this hole. I hope I’ve explained that clearly as I’m not sure I have !

@@SteveBellCreates Can you give me an advice? I need to fit a M6 threaded insert inside the edge of two pieces of beech plywood glued together ( 15+15mm ). My threaded insert outer diameter is is 10mm, I drilled a 9mm hole. I'm hesitating, my threaded inserts seem cheap ( they have no dent on the outer thread ), beech plywood is hard... and I only have one try... do you think I should enlarge the hole if I don't want the plywood to break or it's ok ? Thanks

@@Stavroguine826 hi have you any scrap plywood to try it in first ? If not can you put a clamp over the two pieces where the insert is going to help avoid breakout also if it’s a tight fit and difficult to screw in add a little bit soap to the threads of your. Insert but just take it nice and slow good luck
