  1. welcome Please post your pic's here, not everyone can see them if you post off site Thanks
  2. I bought a Byrna SD because I really don't want to take a life if it can be avoided , But I can't find a patteren for a holster to fit it. I've tried twice now to male my own but I'm lousy at pattern making and wasted a lot of leather trying. So if anyone has a pattern and is willing to share I'd sure appreciate it.
  3. I use coreldraw 5 which I bought years ago took me a while to figure it out and like everything I only use about 5% of what it can do. I last year I started getting message from corel that my copy was illegal and I had to buy a new copy, well screw that I paid good money for this program many years ago , I beached to corel but they wouldn't listen . A friend of mind had the same problem but he found a hack that lets us still use the program , but you have to apply the hack about every third time you open corel kind of a PITA but at least I can still use it. I found that inkscape works better then corel to convert images to vectors so if I have to I use inkscape to convert then import to corel. Glad you found a solution that works for you.
  4. I don't know anything about Lightburn and very little about Inkscape. I use coreldraw. I ungroup everything , then I make everything a hairline. Then I can assign each line a color, and set power and speed to what ever I want.
  5. Glad you popped in, to bad you didn't win the lottery LOL stay well ,
  6. Pretty cool very nice work
  7. If you convert your image to a vector then you can change line colors thus making line of different depths.
  8. Come on Chuck get on say Hi. Maybe he won the lottery and is enjoying the good life
  9. Pretty good for a first attempt
  10. What can I say ,I've done dozens of knife sheaths and holsters never had a problem. Just use low heat setting .
  11. I hav en't seen Chuck in a while hope your ok . Please check in say Hi
  12. I just use a cheap Walmart toaster oven. It works just fine, low heat for an hour or so. No problems .Perfect control of the heat is not necessary. These toaster oven hold the temp pretty close to 150
  13. this something I've been wanting to try on my laser. yes you can engrave the Pat then cut it out, may cut it with the laser then background, theres a video on here someplace of a guy showing how to do it, but I forgot were its at, some place in 3d printers and lasers I think. I'll look found it
  14. Thanks I was kinda wondering if this ssd works like a regular ssd drive
  15. I'm looking to buy an SSD storage drive, my question is can you save and use software programs from these drive's? Ultra-Speed-External-SSD-4_5000x.webp
  16. I design in corel draw. It was a bit of a learning curve for sure and I have nowhere learned it all just what I need for engraving and still learning more.
  17. edges have to be really smooth and slick to were the seam doesn't show them maybe more then 1 kote of edgekote just a thought
  18. I think clothing leather would not make good knife sheath, to soft . Go to a thrift shop or good will find some cheap leather boots or shoes and try that
