Hey everyone,
Matt here with the Hemetic Trading Co. I've been finding a lot of the answers I've been looking for in the forums here, but I've finally come across something that I'm not sure has been asked. Maybe there's a reason for that... but I'll ask anyways.
So the question I have is, does anyone know a supplier of pre-shaped die cuts for leather pull tabs, to be used with zippers. I've found suppliers who sell pre-made leather pull tabs, but I'd prefer to use the leather I already have in stock to keep things consistent. On the other hand, I've found suppliers who will make custom dies, but they don't seem to have any pre-shaped dies for leather pull tabs. It seems like a common enough embellishment that there should be a source who can supply just the dies.
Just for reference, I'm looking for a die that can cut a similar pull tab to the one in this image:
Am I looking for something that doesn't exist? Or does someone on here have a supplier for a die like this? If not, I suppose we can get some custom dies made, I was just hoping to save a bit of time and cash!
Thanks in advance for the help, I'm looking forward to being a member of this community!

Hey Guys,
Thanks for the responses. As of right now, that's what the plan is. I don't mind spending the 40-50 on the die, I was just hoping to find a source that already has pre-made pull tab dies. It seems like a pretty common thing to do, so I was hoping there was a short cut available. Sounds like I'll have to design my own shape and have it custom made.
Thanks again for the help!
