No stitching, Red cover is .8mm calf skin, Polished brass snap Lining is .6mm Kangaroo Wife's cover. She always has smudges on the screen, drives me nuts. The little round overlay is cover for back side of snap piece. With leather this thin I don't like to put the hardware on single layer. I use good quality plastic edge and back cover for phone. Velcro on leather and back of phone case. I cut 1/8" mdf core maple panel with laser to match the total layout of cover. Two little holes are for snap parts location and I used two metal pins in each punching through leather plus into plastic cutting board underneath. That held everything together while cutting leather to shape. I made both covers from the same material with three different options. Polished brass/antique brass snaps, different camera slot, and different shape of snap end of panel. I have made a couple things without stitching since my eyesight is poor with glasses. Love a stitch line on leather. Leather is a bit stiff now, it will soften up and lay closer to phone in a short time.

Don't like the soot that eventually lands on the face of finish leather so I am cutting patterns for the Mrs's phone and mine. I will just go back to cutting with a knife. I will post some pics when I am done with them. Don't know if you don't try. And actually a piece I cut yesterday stinks bad enough I don't want it in my pocket. BTW: I sold my bender for making dies plus I gave my 20 ton press I used for die cutting to my son. OH WELL!!!!!

I have a 20" Powermatic band saw and a 12" Craftsman I haven't done much for sometime with my heavy leather but that is a good idea.

Most of the time I ignore what they tell me and let my wife worry since she will anyway. 😉

OK! I had two pieces of leather similar to what I want to use glued together with Contact cement. When I lase leather I always make a jig with double backed tape so the little bit of air I have blowing on it won't dislodge or allow the leather piece to move. I am getting vey little to no smoke residue on the face of the leather so I may not use film to protect it. I have a new cleaner that takes care of the smoke residue on the edges and no burned leather smell at all. Will cut a final for wife's phone tomorrow and send some pics. BTW: No sign of flame! Also: I am not going to stitch these. I am using a very thin .6mm calf skin and same thickness of Kangaroo for the inside liner. Tried it last time and after 3 years I have no edges coming apart. When I get these done I am going to make my son a welding apron from a beautiful piece of leather I didn't sell. I know, I was going to quit this leather business. I have two hospital/doctor visits for this month. We will see if this bunch thinks I have Congestive Heart Failure, a clogged artery, or just getting too doggone old. I also had half of my lungs filled with blood clots. Getting old is such a fun time!!!!!!!! Ferg

I am in Beavercreek about 50ish miles north of Cincy. I have been making chocolate dipped candy during the cold weather and decided I needed a change of pace. Wife’s and my cell phones need new covers, I have made all of them. Always cut them by hand normally the outside layer to exact shape and inside liner larger, glue them together and trim to fit. Hands aren’t very steady anymore so edges don’t suit me. I drew a design with computer with all necessary snap holes and camera hole. I want to glue inside and outside together as an oversized platform then use the laser with its precision to cut everything. We used latex contact cement by the five gallons to laminate thousands of feet of Formica to substrate. That glue has little to no smell and may not give me a sick headache. Since it is water based it shouldn’t catch fire in the laser. Also, I have two exhaust fans connected to my CO2 laser

Anyone laser cut layered leather when using latex (water based) contact cement?

Okay, if you are hesitant about the price I cannot take the price lower.

Are you still interested in knife. Some clarification of your intentions Please. Ferg
