Welcome to the forum!

When backgrounding with that tool, you have to rotate it as you are hitting it. Plus, you need to keep constant pressure so your color is as even as possible. I would strongly agree with ClayB....Practice.

Sent you a PM for the Tippman. Good luck

See if you can go into Paul BUrnett's free lessons. he has one on Beveling that should help you answer your question. If not, post a picture. That would help us help you.

that's stunning Ed. another great job!

Welcome to the forum.

Best wishes and hope for a speedy recovery.

I would recommend contacting Big Papa Leather. He usually sharpens my stuff initially using the GRS system that Hidepounder stated. He offers sharpening services for all leather related tools. You can mail it in and he will return it for a low cost. I learned how to sharpen my blades from Chuck/Lana Smith and Big Papa using a 'big red' jig. Paul's article is a great asset. I really like his knife. I re-angled my Leather Wrangler's blade and resharpened it with Paul's help. Good luck

contact 'shop talk' magazine, they have a recondition one for sale. I saw it in their recent magazine. Good luck

Ms. Brenda at www.lasergiftcreations.com. She is a member here and has a lot of satisfied customers on here and over the pond. Good luck.

DITTO!

Thanks for the comments. That connecting 'thing' is complicating me, but I will work it out.

Very nice shop. Best of luck.

That sure is purdy! Nice job.

I have pretty much put the carving aside with the exception of my swivel knife practice to learn how to draw my own designs. I have collected a lot of flowers, leaves, junctures and vine drawings for my book that I work off. It seems to be going well so far for my basic designs. I hope to incorporate more multi flowers, leave and junctures soon. For now, I am keeping it basic for now. Good luck.

Here is my second floral pattern that I designed for a thermos water bottle for my niece. I will be designing one for my sister's matching bottle. Any critiques are welcome!

thanks for the comments. I will be posting another one up here soon.

I thought about that and may have to relook at the design again. There will be a fold at the single flower in the center. thanks.
