resin would be great but you can also use poly acrylic like for floors...

fusion 360 and adobe illustrator is my goto

the pattern is his intellectual property so make sure it is spelled out clearly that you can sell and resell said pattern
-
According to US Law if you purchase a pattern you can make and sell items made with that pattern..... you can NOT sell or distribute the pattern
-
you can buy them on etsy and eBay or the website

steel rule is typically inset into a wood base that has had the pattern cut in... depending on complexity you can bend it and screw the sides into a wooden shape such as a rectangle.
to bend the shape you use a bender... small newer types are out there cheap whereas a commercial one will cost you 1000 at a shop auction or on eBay

15 hours ago, Big Sioux Saddlery said:What style and what finish, Lew? I usually stock them in both the 210 and 545 styles in SS, and have some SB also, might have some CB left too. Might even have some NP and BP around which would be cheaper. PM me if interested, and I'll check to make sure I have what you want, and get prices.
PM sent
Thanks

I glue essex on a daily basis....we use a special heat activated glue.. after we glue each surface (like with contact cement) and it dries... we put them together and run them thru a heated roller press..

I am just lucky that I work with Shell Cordovan from horween on a fairly regular basis.... The stuff is so nice to work with! It is real pricey but has a great finish to it.
