Chakotay Report post Posted January 2, 2023 I actually made a video of this for my Youtube channel. I didn't use a pattern at the time of filming. However, you can get one from Babylon Leather (link in the video description . . . note I don't receive any commission for this.) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Although a nice plastic template would be way better to have, I kinda just needed a quick template. damn would be nice though to have Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sheilajeanne Report post Posted January 2, 2023 (edited) Where can I get something to cut the corners with, like the rounded pieces of metal he has? Could use something like that for cutting windows in a wallet or cell phone case. Edited January 2, 2023 by Sheilajeanne Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There's several styles of them and they're pretty cheap. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Could use something like that for cutting windows in a wallet or cell phone case. Amazon has some odds and ends for cutting rounded corners, even for cutting the camera slot in a cell phone case. Some of these are pretty light weight, corner punches etc. aren't as nicely finished as the pictures show, but would do for occasional use. For heavier duty, go to the Longview Leather, SLC, Weaver, etc. Some examples that you might be interested in from Amazon; https://www.amazon.ca/Trimmers-Leather-Trimmer-Leathercraft-Cutting/dp/B07YZFMFF4/ref=sr_1_296?crid=SJADCY46YC87&keywords=leather+tools&qid=1672700992&sprefix=leather+tools%2Caps%2C128&sr=8-296 https://www.amazon.ca/Leather-Punch-Cutter-Tools-Hollow/dp/B08R694896/ref=sr_1_241?crid=SJADCY46YC87&keywords=leather+tools&qid=1672700952&sprefix=leather+tools%2Caps%2C128&sr=8-241 https://www.amazon.ca/Leather-Craft-Hollow-Cutter-Plastic/dp/B07NZPFR16/ref=sr_1_200?crid=SJADCY46YC87&keywords=leather+tools&qid=1672700886&sprefix=leather+tools%2Caps%2C128&sr=8-200 https://www.amazon.ca/Baitaihem-Leather-Half-Round-Cutter-5mm-50mm/dp/B09YCQWNWD/ref=sr_1_153?crid=SJADCY46YC87&keywords=leather+tools&qid=1672700829&sprefix=leather+tools%2Caps%2C128&sr=8-153 https://www.amazon.ca/DIUDUS-V-Shaped-Leather-Cutting-Cutter/dp/B09YNT6SKW/ref=sr_1_55?crid=SJADCY46YC87&keywords=leather+tools&qid=1672700718&sprefix=leather+tools%2Caps%2C128&sr=8-55 https://www.amazon.ca/Hollow-Cutter-Leather-Cutting-Handmade/dp/B09XDGF7GX/ref=sr_1_56?crid=SJADCY46YC87&keywords=leather+tools&qid=1672700718&sprefix=leather+tools%2Caps%2C128&sr=8-56 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chakotay Report post Posted January 3, 2023 Yep, you found them! Some of the items (like the shaped die cutters) are best used on an arbor press (or similar). You may see me on the videos pounding on them with a maul, but that's usually just because I only needed one or two cuts and didn't want to set up the camera for it. The leathercraft stuff on Amazon really runs the gamut of junk to very good. Just read the reviews carefully. But at the price it's a good place to try a particular tool before spending real $$$ on the expensive version. For instance, before dropping $180 on a single Sinabroks stitching punch, I decided to try the $40 "WUTA" brand stitching punches (a set of 3) first just to see if I like this style of stitching. They work great and l never bought the Sinabroks verison. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
