Thanks @EquusCustomLeathers. Do they have fusible interfacing with sticker type like this becasue all I know is the type that need to be ironed for glue.

For now, when I make a purse and want it to be more stiff I use what it call " Salpa" from italy, However, I don't think it work well with my bag and the Salpa have no glue in itself, I need to put the glue to stick it with leather which sometime when making a big bag, it waste a lot of glue and time and also make the bag much more heavier from glue weight as it need to be glue 2 sides on the whole sheet. However when I saw this Japanese bag maker, he used the interfacing like in the picture, it look like he just peeling off and stick it to the leather like sticker. It would be much more convenient for using and safe time for gluing. Anyone have an idea what name of it and where is it sell? Thanks

What Is This Tool Called, And Where Do I Find It?
tonioo replied to conceptdiba's topic in Leatherwork Conversation
Hi, as I see in the product catalogue, one type of head is for sure use to make the line near the edge or edge creasing. However, Are there any type of the tool's head that use to smooth the edge. I seen on the blog that one guy interview the Hermes craftswoman at the festival "Martine showed us how she sands down the edges of the leather with a hot tool to remove the excess glue and to get a smooth edge. When she’s satisfied that the edges are perfect, she then adds a layer of lacquer to seal them." So, if anybody know which head is use to do this, please tell me as I need to buy it thank you -
thank you very much but what is it actually use for, is it for edging like i said. I know just it use electricity for generate heat right? and can you please give the first website again it seem to broken, I cann't open it

thank you, that very helpful for what I see, I think the slash number usually used in the waxed linen and another type use in the unwaxed one however, if anybody know about the number of the Fil Au Chinois brand (French) , the Babour (Irish) or Campbell's (Irish) they all use the number like 532 , 632 for the unwaxed linen thread. I know just higher number, the smaller of the thread

look at 0.05 of the clip, what is that three toll? and they use it in 1.05 , for me, I think it the tool about edging anyone know what is it because I think Hermes make very nice edge painting and it very smooth, is this tool is the par of it thank you

On the unwaxed linen thread like Fil Au Chinois, they have a number ex. 532 , 632 what is this number, Is it the size of the thread or the weight? and some has like 60/3, so what is it exactly, very confuse and if I want to buy how do I know the actually dimension like diameter of the thread, is this number mean in itself thank yoou
