    I have the super skiver tool, I didn't think it would work on the thinner leathers but I'll give it a try. I'll try another round of collars as soon as I get more dog measurements!

    fredk, thank you so much! That makes total sense. What tool does one use for feather skivving?

    Here is what the spot where the D-ring goes looks like. Ignore the extra piece of leather there so the clamps don't mar the finished surface. I'm hesitant to skiv any more, these need to be really strong.

    They have a base layer of 5-6 oz shoulder then 1 layer of 1/5-2 ounce red buffalo calf and a layer of 1/5-2 ounce calf on top with the cutout.So when I fold it over, I don't want just the layers of calf holding the hardware which is why I skived the base layer about in half at the fold. I tapered the skiv, but maybe I should do it more like a step?

    I don't own that tool, but that seems like a good idea. Thanks!

    I did skive the base layer down about 50% but I'm afraid to loose more and have them not be strong enough.

    They are far from perfect but good enough to give out to the people on my flyball team (team colors are red and black). I learned a lot and each one gets better. By the time I do another 7-8 for the rest of the dogs on the team, I think I might have it figured out. I would like to figure out how to get rid of some of the bulk where the hardware is.
