  8. Hello I should do my first slider ... the customer asked me to do a sheath similar or the same as above ... Where do I start??
  9. OK, my Engrish translating is a little rusty, but I will take a stab at this one. I think Billio is asking about the lacing layout (possibly got translated as calculated), and if there is a difference in size between the top, and bottom. Is there foam involved? Hehehehe is not easy to explain what you want to ask thanks for having explained it for me I cut the top leather 1/2 inch larger than the actual size of the pan, this is when using 3/4 inch foam, I then cut the bottom leather 3/4 inch larger than the top leather. Bottom leather is attached to pan, foam is shaped and then after tooling top leather is we formed over foam. Then I Barge cement the perimeter of the top to the perimeter of the bottom, after cement sets I then trim the bottom leather to meet the top and punch holes. Using 1/4 inch lace I space holes 1/4" apart and 1/4" in from the edge. thanks for the explanation 3 / 4 inch foam is the thickness? thancks Billio8
