    I wrapped it around a piece of veg-tan 8-10 oz, I hope the picture makes sense...
  7. JRLeather2
    That is a piece of milled leather, veg tanned and very flexible, but also toolable if needed.

    My best guess would be a large plate stamp, the type you use in a press....
  9. JRLeather2
    Yes, Sir.

    I hope this makes sense.

    The T series are no longer made by Tandy. They are Turnbacks. I will post some examples of how they are used when I get to the shop.

    Not deer hide, but something close. I did this one today, based on the really old one.

    Thanks for the kind words. I should also point out that was done with no swivel knife cuts and a single pass with the beveler. I also lean the beveler back to get the other line.

    This one was several years earlier than to first... I think the flash on my camera washed them out a little bit.

    I use an edge beveler to trim, put it against the thread apply a little pressure and pull the thread into it.
  17. JRLeather2
    Is it this one?

    8-10 oz Wickett & Craig leather. Properly cased and beveled with a Tandy B803. Only tooled on the top.

    A belt I tooled for Wildcat belts...
  23. JRLeather2
    Thanks. I don't know how or why the word got out but it has been blowing up. Yeah I have been doing the belt thing since September of 2013.
  24. JRLeather2
    I stand corrected! I don't have much to do with that part of the business. I just tool leather. They leave my shop looking like the one on the top. And then after Andrew is done they look like the one on the bottom.

    I have run my burnishers in my cheap drill press for years with no problems...
