Hi Ross, You have a good site and works. We too have work with Tree of Life. About “some awesome tooling’. Our advantage - we do not depend on tools. We create drawing, a background and the different texture an ordinary knife which is used by shoemakers. We cut, we cut out and we delete leathers part. Our works are not afraid some water because we break leather structure. We do not squeeze out leather and we do not condense it. Each work occupies a lot of time. Any incorrect movement of a hand to correct it is impossible. You will not paste leather on an old place. Work with a thin leather demands attention even more. It is possible to cut a hole. We work hard.

Hi, craftsman827, I do not know skin weight. We usually look its thickness. For bags we use 2.5-3.0 mm. The bag looks hard, but it easy. It is the order from the student of university for books and notebook.

There are lions at a forum?

yes

And it bio-mech design too?

It's all arranged! For us the main thing now to find a leather. The greater skin is a problem. One year ago we had an order for a cloth for the big table (2,5*1,5m) and that the ends hung. About 3 months we searched, waited a suitable skin, but... At last have found the approximate sizes, but quality... I do not know as it have been processed, but inside there were any firm particles and a knife it was necessary grind everyone 1,5 - 2 works hours. And here that have received.

We begin the new project of a picture. The maximal size of a skin of the cow. If it is interesting, I can show parts of stages of work and explain, if there will be questions.
