The blade material works satisfactorily for me. I just run a cheap diamond sharpener over it and drive on. It stays sharp for quite awhile. I have another blade I am going to turn into a couple straight blades and recycle old junk rather than throwing it away. I like the methods in Al Stohlmans books. Not spending a lot of money feels right to me. Also I am more of a hobbyist than full time worker. Good luck with blade. I think the saws are a bit thinner than most blades. 1/8" maybe I don't recall the thickness, Not out in shop right now.

I know this is an old post, but I use Elmers rubber cement from local store usually grocery or hardware carries it cheaply.

Send a message to Johanna, the moderator for access. Apparently that section has grown since I was last on.

Originally an ad selling a sex oriented leather business, if I remember correctly, began as a joke and grew. In the classified section.

Hi, go to youtube and look for rust removal using vinegar or molasses. Cheap method to de-rust steel or iron. Nice find, I have no idea what all they are, but good luck with them.

I am not working with leather to make money. I work with leather because the activity is one that I enjoy performing. The little I know and use to make things only create more desire to learn more about this activity. I love to read about and view other folks works, but I really enjoy practicing to see if I can do something similar. Possibly creating something that is pleasing to my eye and with as few flaws as possible, even if I am the only one who notices those flaws.
That is why I am here.

A couple old dental tools I use for modeling leather, I believe they are stainless, hold an edge like nothing else. Top is a rounded/cupped, next is a triangular point, then a round, each has a blade of differing shape on other end. -
Nice work!

I believe this post was begun in response to someone posting about selling a shop devoted to leather articles for adults. This is a photo of a female torso I copied from the net some years ago, no idea who did it. It is of leather.
