Is there away to, for example to make a check book and line it with pig lining, and before glueing it cut two slits in it in the middle where the check book folds. And be able to slide a pencil or a pen in the slot? is there away to do that with still having the lining glued down with out any wrinkles? I have tried it and it keeps wrinkling up where I cut the two slits. Thanks.

Im glad a few people got some use out of it, I enjoyed the site.

Thanks, John.

I stumbled upon this web site that has free d/l of leather books, most of them are old book with lots of patterns. Leathercraft has patterns for billfold, cigarette case, key container, tobacco pouch, book cover, belts and so on. I provide a few books that you can download in .pdf format and there is other formats which can be d/l to. There is also videos and audio on "leather" as well, here is the link to the site with the word leather is already searched. http://archive.org/s...p?query=leather Hope you guy enjoys this, Thanks for looking.
