Hi All, We have a popular brand in the UK called 'HUNTER', and they have recently released a back-pack range with a rubberised leather Outer; \ Does anyone know the process to make this? Or do you know if it can be purchased pre-rubberised?

I am not that funny unfortunately. I agree with the comments further down, this prototype would defiantly not. However there are things I could do to improve the strength. I am curious to why people are against clamping? Is it a time issue? Thank you Brian. I love your work! Thank you very much Wedgetail. This prototype was 10mm thick (not including the letters). I will defiantly make the next one thicker, thank you for the advice.

Agree'd! That is awesome.

Hi All, I am new to leather work and new to the forum. I wanted to add my name to the last project I made and decided to 3D-print a stamp instead of buying one. The first step was to design a stamp, I did this using a mixture of Photoshop (GIMP is a great alternative) and FreeCad. Once I had my design, I printed it using my PURSIA I3. This was the result; After some prep; I applied it to some leather off-cuts. (Please excuse the terrible stitch experiment here, I was using an old singer sewing machine); I was quite impressed with the result. I'm going to try it with 2 clamps next time, hopefully this will spread the pressure more evenly. The grain effect was unintentional, but I quite like it. Please let me know your thoughts, MARSHY.
