THE BIG RED VIKING Report post Posted November 12, 2009 I am a beginner in the leather world and want to try my hand at tooling. I don't know where to start. I want to get a swivel knife but don't know what length or tube size to get, I have pretty good sized hands. What other tools (kits) should I get to get me started in the right direction. I have read some of the forums and got some help but am frustrated. I am interrested in doing flash art and floral. Any help would be appricateded Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chris B Report post Posted November 16, 2009 How I started was I got the deluxe beginners kit from tandy a couple of years ago. And now I am finally taking them up on the free tooling classes they give. That is if you buy a beginners kit from them. Its a big help to be able to go into the store and get some help and guidance. Good Luck!!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
