    Conversion board in leatherworker.net Cuero de curtido vegetal de tres milimetros de espesor para, a) estampar troqueles? or repujar o tallar? Usually, we never say what the leather we are buying is used for (tooling, carving, casing...), we only buy the leather we think is better for our work in the store. Sorry by my english, but I'm sure that in leatherworker.net there are a lot of members that could translate better than me the spanish to english but they don`t read or don't write in this post; translate english to spanish is more easy for me.

    Yes, I think beveler could be translated by "biselador", but bevel stamp = "conico (in the shape of a cone; con forma de cono), con forma de triangulo". Beveled edge = borde (of a sheath), bisel en forma de v We use for measurement leather the square foot, centimeters and milimeters. square foot = pie cuadrado = 33 x 33 centimeters 1 inch (pulgada in spanish) = 2.54 centimeters 1 centimeter (cm) = 10 milimeters (mm) For thickness we use milimeters: 1 inch = 25.4 mm = 2.54 cm 1 oz = 0.4 mm 7-8 oz = 2-3 mm I advise you to look up a conversion board. I know that in any website about leather furniture you can get a conversion board in OZ, but I don´t remember that link, sorry. Here is not usual to sell leather at weight, I haven`t notice.

    Yes, is right, "Artesanía en cuero" or only "cuero". Leather = cuero; craft = afición, oficio, pasatiempo.
