Hi Needles, welcome, we have a Tandy in Northampton, they stock gum trag, they are normally pretty quick too.

Tthe edge bevelling, dyeing & finishing are all done before stitching, the stitch that goes over the edge is called a "bind over", hope this helps.

I love the mule pics Chief, thanks for sharing, good luck with your repairs, looking forward to see them when youve finished.

Personally I'd go with a small cylinder arm machine, I think the work is more manouverable on those & if ya clever enough you could always build a box to go around the arm to make a flatbed, just my opinion, if I get another machine thats what I'll be after.

wow what a difference, I really like that, well done & thanks for sharing.

I really wish we had folk like that over here

I dont think you can get tired of the smell of leather but when you get used to it you dont always notice it anymore

You made a lovely job of that.
I think Renee meant the actual wallet pieces so you then have the pattern to make more if you want to...I do that with all the kits I buy

Hi Andrew, I use lining paper (wall paper) for making my patterns, its quite thick but still flexible, when Im happy with it or have tried it & it works I glue it to some card so its more rigid & harder wearing.
