Good morning folks. I've been looking at giving leatherworking a shot for a while now and have finally taken the plunge and ordered some stuff to get me started. I've no doubt that I've forgotten something major but can't for the life of me think what that glaring omission is. I'm planning on starting with a belt (or 2) and probably having a look at something stupidly simple like a keyring to practice stitching on. I'm hoping someone could take a look over my list of ordered bits and tell me what I've missed? My order is as follows
A2 cutting mat
Metal Ruler
Edge Slicker
20m leather sewing thread + 2 blunt needles
4 prong stitching punch
Overstitch wheel
1 wooden handled Awl
Rivets and setting tool
9 Pce punch set (2.5mm – 10mm)
Groover
Edge Beveller
Edge Slicker
Roller buckles
800g leather offcuts
2 x belt blanks (3.5mm Veg Tan, 54" x 1.5". 1 black, 1 dark brown)
Tan Kote I already own a good Stanley Knife and a mallet. I'm hoping that I really catch the bug and can add more tools / dyes / etc etc as I need them for future projects
