I've got TONS of unique, one-off leather for sale. A range of sizes and colors and finishes, great for small projects. I'm about to list some large hides in addition to the small and medium I have for sale. Right now I'm posting on eBay but would love to sell direct. Here is the eBay link- https://www.ebay.com/sch/racbec-61/m.html?_nkw=&_armrs=1&_ipg=&_from= Better photos coming soon too! There are MANY more than shown below.

Album here. Hello everyone. It's been a while since I last posted, and honestly I haven't been doing much. Unfortunately hobbies take money, and there just hasn't been enough to spend on hobbies lately. This was inspired by a member on another site showing his 3D printed belt template. I have enough knowledge of CAD products to be dangerous, so I figured I'd give it a try. The linked album was the result. I used Sketchup, which I knew nothing about. After following the first 3 how-to's they have, this is what I came up with. Initially I tried importing my existing CAD template, but Sketchup wouldn't allow me to push/pull to make a 3d object. I think this took me about 30 minutes or so to whip up. Now that I know what to do it shouldn't take more than 5 for the other templates I have planned. The most complicated part was getting the point right. None of the arcs would make this type of English point. What I wound up doing is drawing an equilateral rectangle, then two circles centered on two points, then breaking everything outside of the intended point. Also, Sketchup doesn't have the ability to save in STL file format, which is what most 3d printers read. I had to install the "Sketchup STL" extension, which gave me the ability to export the STL file. I might make a 2nd version of this template. The holes are a tad too big for my scratch awl to properly/accurately center. If you're wondering about the odd length, it's because of the print area that's available on the 3d printer I used. The print field is 6"x6"x10", but max size on your parts can only be 1/4" less than that. I could have printed it vertically, but that would have required a support structure which I wasn't too interested in creating. If you have access to a 3d printer, give this a try. I don't think you'll be disappointed.

Does anyone know how i could print a design from my computer and somehow transfer it with a transfer paper on to a leather surface. I want to put a print on a pair of my Nike Air Force 1 gym shoes.
