Is it a big hassle to order from Amazon in Canada. If not they sell small sheets of leather in various thickness. for you pouch project you could order 1 or two sheets of 12"x12" Veg tan in 3 to 4 oz .

Using a co2 laser does leave chard edges if you don't mask. I personally like the looks of the burnt edges and theres a client base out there that likes that look also. Masking is ok if theres not a lot of fine engraving. You have to weed all the masking off. I do a lot of basket weave engraving and if I masked that it would take forever to weed it all off. I don't normally dye my veg tan. I oil it with different types of oil. Then set it out in the hot sun to dry and change color. different oils give different color when it drys and also how long you leave it out in the sun.After the oil drys I then give it a couple coats of super sheen or resolene and let that dry real good. Then I laser engrave and cut the design out. Most of the residue will wipe off with a damp cloth. I sand the edges then bevel them and that removes most all of the char and burnt edges. Burnish and edge kote the edges and your done.see pictures , these I cut and engraved on my laser . you can hardly see any charing at all.

Yea that may be fine for a drop in holster but will never work to make a fine molded holster with proper retention for drawing .

I agree with Klara.Clean up your own work space and take pictures of it. we know you won't you'll go ahead and use stock picture to make people think you have a class act shop so they buy from you.

Instead of Pliers I use those rubber finger tips on thumb and index finger.makes gripping and pulling a lot easier. https://smile.amazon.com/Cosco-Rubber-Finger-Medium-098173/dp/B00T8A7MM2/ref=smi_www_rco2_go_smi_4368549507?_encoding=UTF8&hvadid=167131134469&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9030113&hvnetw=g&hvpone=&hvpos=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvrand=12698839773688857265&hvtargid=pla-314544930691&ie=UTF8&linkCode=df0&psc=1&tag=hyprod-20 -
Thanks I took a picture of it off the net then traced it in corel to get a vector out line. Then I filled in what I wanted to stand out and engraved out everything else, so the colored part of the Reaper is raised .Its 7 to 8 oz Veg tan so should last a while LOL .
