leatheroo Report post Posted October 13, 2010 I wanted to try something with a bit more detail, but i am a bit limited by the number of tools i have, or i should say don't have. Anyway, i managed to create this with three barry king bevellers and peter mains modelling tool. I realise i need some much smaller bevelers...so time to start saving!!!!

BIGGUNDOCTOR Report post Posted October 16, 2010 No one says that you have to buy tools. If you need a smaller beveler-make it. I have a 1970's leather working book, and they hated the store bought tools. They used all manner of homemade, and found tools to do the work. You are working with damp leather, so a tool doesn't neccesarily have to be made of metal. Try making some from plastic, wood, or even modifying ordinary items in the home to use. Nice work BTW.
