Innetoc Manual Leather Skiver Peeler Splitter Thinning Skiving Machine Leathercraft Edging Machine for DIY Project

Although good / strong / quality material, it failed / broke within a month (30days) of use.

Out of the box there is a lot of play on the connections and adjustment screws, which makes it very difficult to use.After tightening all of these down, and adding some PTFE tape to the threads it works perfectly even on soft leather which I've always had trouble skiving.

Der Versand war wirklich unglaublich schnell. Angekommen macht das Gerät auch erst mal einen guten Eindruck. Der Anbau an die Arbeitsplatte erfolgt erst mal mit Schrauben aus der eigenen Werkstatt. Die erste Rasierklinge ist schon verbaut.....weitere liegen nicht dabei. Die Klingen für etwas dickeres Leder sind sehr stabil und auch scharf. Beim Austausch der ersten Klinge ist das Gewinde für die Klingenaufnahme schon sehr seltsam abgenutzt oder verkehrt geschnitten...nicht sehr vertrauenserweckend. Der Hebel für die Höhenverstellung liegt beim dritten Einstellen schon in der Hand.....ich habe das ganze Teil wieder verpackt und zurückgeschickt. Schade um die ganze Zeit von der Bestellung bis zum Eintreffen. Aber das ist Schrott in Kartonage verpackt. Ich bleibe beim Skiven per Hand.

Works much better for veg tan leather. Really need to work with this tool to get it to do what you want it to. Definitely practice on scrap leather to get the feel for how deep it will skive. For the money it's not bad, but hand skiving still better for me, personally.

Out of the box this did not work at all for me. First, the blade was set too far forward of the rolling pin that the leather rides on. The blade would not bite in to the leather. I had to take a file to both mating surfaces and use a thinner washer than the one that was originally installed in order to move the blade directly above the rolling pin. This solved the cutting problem. Next, the blade kept drifting down after each reset of the cut. This was causing me to cut through the leather if I was having to take multiple passes. This can be solved with a jam nut on the the height adjustment knob. It adds an extra step and tool during adjustments but it is a must. Finally, I had to shim or bend most all of the interacting parts to reduce the slop to an acceptable tolerance. This took a couple of hours of work but I now have a functional tool.
