Dog collars - always worked flat?
benlilly1 replied to Klara's topic in Collars, Cuffs, Leashes and Leads
I sewed all of these collars flat. I used JH Leather video for directions. I used 1/8th inch closed cell foam inside the padding leather and hand sewed it. I haven't had a problem with not sewing with it curved.

Thank you! I use an 1/8th inch closed cell foam and wrap it in the upholstery leather. Then I use a contact adhesive and place it just right and make my holes with a Blanchard stitching iron.

Thanks Chuck!

Thanks Toxo! Interesting about the dog stealing and cost. I've seen some collars with a phone number on them. It's a shame we live a world that's such a wreck. Thanks so much!

Thanks Jay! I watched a video for this type of padded collar from JH Leather on Youtube. She knows what she's doing! I need to watch her other videos

Thanks so much! You need to check out www.turnerlaserworks.com These are letter sets you press. He has other styles and adding more. He also does other stamps like logo/plates. Not sure how big he goes in size but he does fine work. He is on Instagram too. -

A new collar for a Bulldog puppy to grow into. Changed buckle to this type, so no oblong punch used. .

Finished collar for an English Bulldog. Customer wanted no d-ring. Padded and hand sewn.

Would love to do hot foil but, my letters are Delrin stamps. A plastic that I use on my press. I will post the new collar when I'm done!
-
Interesting. I know the dog is very muscular. Hadn't thought about using a welded d-ring. Thanks Chuck!
-
Thanks, I just got this lettering so first time using them. Hadn't thought of using embossing powder. Now I need to decide what I'm doing on the next one. He wants it brown and a little carving on each side of the name and the rest he left up to me. Thanks Retswerb! Thanks, I'm using Chicago Screws.

Thanks Kgg! Yeah, I wonder what would be the fix for that issue? The one for the bulldog will be for mostly show. The owner has a harness if he takes her anywhere which is good.

First ever dog collar prototype from scratch. Some mistakes I'll change on the next one. I have a commissioned one for a English Bulldog.

I'm going to be looking for a stitching pony. Anyone have a favorite? I want a mid range in price. Thanks
