  1. So I'm looking to line some of my work with either chamois or felt and need a glue to hold them in place permenantly. The linings will generally be stitched as well. I have contact cement but coverage wise for larger projects it's going to be an expensive do and the smell is also pretty grim, although if it has to be solvent based then so be it. I'm UK based. Regarding edge kote, I have been using black dye for my edges but wonder what is the difference between edge kote and plain dye? many thanks.
  2. Ironically despite searching previous days and finding nothing I've just had another look and found loads of grommets/eyelets! If anyone knows an outlet for snaps that would be great!
  3. Hi, new to leather working and I'm having some problems with grommets. I'm making some keyring lighter holders and the grommets are not long enough to fully penetreate the leather so will not compress properly when crimped. I'm using 2.1mm leather for the holders and wonder if someone can suggest a resource for longer bodied grommets and also snap fasteners? I would prefer not to skive the leather if possible. many thanks, laurence
  4. I use Carbide Create free version. It's actually for cnc machines but it has the option to save as svg so you can even import it into Lightburn for your laser.
