  1. If you haven't used and experienced Light Burn software you have missed the best product for laser engraving and cutting and it keeps getting better. Opinion from a dedicated user.
  2. Dwight, You may try this. I use "Ozium" neutralizer on my laser cut wood products. Available in most hardware stores in a small spray can. Ferg
  3. Have you done a test pattern on some scrap? I am assuming you are using LightBurn software, if not please do yourself a favor and get it. There are test patterns to run along with directions for doing "Ramp Tests". Correct settings of your laser for the material, air assist if you are engraving or cutting with ample exhaust. When I engrave or cut a new type of product I run exhaustive tests at different speeds and power keeping a written note of those settings until I get what I want. Time consuming I agree, necessary, you bet! Begin with low power and speed settings adjusting one or the other to see any change. Visit the Lightburn Forum at https://lightburnsoftware.com Ferg

    Steel Rule Die Bender

    Yes, the bender and dies are still available. I am unable to respond via telephone due to hearing problems. E-mail is a must for me. I am in Southwest Ohio 45432. Please let me know if you wish to visit to see and possibly buy the items. Ferg
  5. I used to do sublimation which I accomplished on white dear leather. I have posted a photo of same before. Also used a Laser Printer Mono color to make whatever image/text I wanted. You can print on the better quality of laser copy paper lay it on your leather or whatever you wish to use. With a household iron you can actually transfer the image to the substrate. No messing with all the other "stuff." Ferg

  9. Tandy Super Skivers. $8.50 each or both for $16.00 plus shipping
  10. Probably 10 or 12 years ago I unearthed a piece of Veg Tan at least forty years old which meant it was bought from Tandy. I found a sketch in one of my art books that I decided to carve into that piece of leather. It wasn't dried out, stiff, or hard. I tempered it and carved this design. Stored under two other leather pieces I done about the same time. It has never been stored or displayed in daylight. Some day I will probably frame it and give it to my youngest daughter. Ferg
  11. I wouldn't take the old ones without checking them over for possible mold or mildew. But Heck Yeah I would take them. Vintage sales! LOL Ferg
  12. I am sorry, I posted the wrong selling price on this item. It should be $250 including shipping to continental USA. No Alaska shipping. They are Horse Shoe Brand. Ferg

  14. I am presenting a set of five edge rounding tools numbering No1 through No5, made of stainless steel with hardwood handles. I don't remember who the manufacturer was I do know how much I paid for them.Emblem on them H S which may not mean a thing. Have never been used. Asking $250 plus shipping. Ferg
  15. I have replied to this conversation personally. Anyone else need info on the items I am in the process of cataloging and photographing the items I wish to sell. I began my leather crafting when around nineteen years old while in the Navy. I am five months from being eighty nine years old/young. Believe me when I tell you with arthritis in both feet and ankles, spine, hands and fingers plus being deaf, life is a little fragile and totally exasperating. I would like to believe that working since I was eight years old and enjoying most every minute of it I can influence others with drive. Ferg
