    I don't use anything to 'finish' it. I use just as it is, other than a bit of saddle soap on the edges.

    Definitely on a roll there. One thing you might look into is one of the figure carving matting tools. That will fade your background out and make your flowers stand out even more.

    That is great! Very nice, and good colors.

    If you take a center punch and tap a few places on the face of the disc it will create small 'volcano' craters. The raised edges will bite the wood and should stop the turning. Don't get too aggressive.

    After the leather has passed the blade, it is not binding against the body of the cutter. It doesn't need to be tight past the blade, it just needs to stay tight AT the blade. I also punch a hole in the end of the strap that I hang on a screw hook under my bench so I can pull against that.

    I have the cardboard on the OTHER side of the tool. What you show has a wider strap going into a narrower exit, creating a bind.

    I gave them a look and liked what I saw. If shipping to the US isn't too bad, I will place an order.

    I no longer lace projects, but I didn't bevel the edges when I did.

    I really like all of their products I've used.

    Total BullSnot. A crappy excuse for a crappy tool.

    Very nice, clean lines. Very often simplicity is the best course.

    Neoprene. We use it on harnesses for sled dogs. It is the same stuff 'mouse pads' are made of and comes with or without the fabric facing.

    Lots of good advice above. And let me point out that you have your snap parts reversed. Generally speaking, the male part would go on the body of the sheath, and the female part on the flap. This is not written in stone, but that is the usual application.

    Made my wife a shooting bag for rendezvous. Then my granddaughter wanted one, and the grandson, and my wife's friend...........

    It is totally nonexistent. Went to add something RIGHT AFTER I posted, and NO Edit button!

    Glad I could help. I use it for tying plastic CAUTION tape around our job sites, the square knot will pull loose in the wind. Those turned out beautiful.

    Or a Sheet Bend.

    Never saw the need for anything like that, not even for woodworking. Leatherwork? Not in the least.

    Very nice! But what is 'rain'?
  22. tsunkasapa
    That is the total opposite of what Al Stohlman and the old guys that taught me in the saddle shop. BOTH needles go through at the same time, eliminating the possibility of piercing the threads.

    Can't open the pictures.
  24. tsunkasapa
    Glue LARGE pieces of the two leathers and cut BOTH pieces as one.

    I have done numerous projects that I doubt I could duplicate. That's what makes them all special. Bianchi and others turn out cookie cutter products, not my thing.
