dwhitefeather Report post Posted April 22, 2010 (edited) Does anyone know how to make a resin embossing die from original leather carving. About 15 years ago Robert plate service used to make polyester or fiberglass resin impression dies out of the orginal carving. My leather would come back with a mold release on it. I think it smelled like polyester. I know it didn't crack ez. Any help Thanks. Edited April 22, 2010 by dwhitefeather Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Here are a couple of topics where members have shared several tips on creating templates to impress a pattern onto leather.
