wildland Report post Posted April 16, 2009 I am getting ready to start adding lacing to the edges of my work and wanted to know what people thought would be the best book or books for learning the different ways of doing this. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kevinhopkins Report post Posted April 17, 2009 Hi... Any of the simple tandy instruction books are pretty good, and will more than likely get you started. I've got them if you don't have close source. And I think I've laced a trillion wallets and other things, for whatever that's worth. kevin@springfieldleather.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
budd4766 Report post Posted April 17, 2009 Bruce Grant's books are pretty good as well. Easy to follow...and with pictures!! I started braiding stuff the first day I got "Leather Braiding". I got it off Amazon, but you can find it at Tandy too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dose "Leather Braiding" cover different lacing styles for around the edges of stuff as well? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
budd4766 Report post Posted April 17, 2009 Yep, it does. Though I can't remember the specific name of this braid, here is a couple cell phone cases I did using Grant's book as a guide. All this braiding came from his book. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
troy Report post Posted April 17, 2009 If you try the place below - books by Ron edwards - he does a great little book called 'leather lacing manuel' contains about 20 odd different edge lacing techniques. Ram skull press australia Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
