"Pebblers", a type of backgrounder. Springfield Leather has some, stamps PA003, PA004, and PA005. My local Tandy has started carrying some too, as I bought one there last week--unfortunately, being the dip I am, I didn't put it on my block, and now the "house ate it". I'll see if I can find it tomorrow and give you the number off of it. If you have the number of the one I got from my Tandy, maybe your local Tandy will get them in for you.

Rickeyfro, nice job on that seat.

Ok, I found the stamp I bought at Tandy. It is marked Craftool M884, and there were at least 3 or 4 other shapes/styles with the pebble texture.

Good looking seat Rickey. :thumbsup:

On the pebble tools, definitely go with the Hidecrafter ones from Springfield. The Tandy ones don't have quite as good of definition to them as the SLC ones.

I bought 10 of the 04 and 3 of the 03 and ground & polished them to various shapes and sizes so they are now my most used backgrounders. Folks seems to take notice of the background more now than when I used the traditional cross hatch pattern.

Agreed, the Hidecrafters are crisper. I'm using the Tandy one as a "fader" as it's large and indistinct. I don't even use a mallet--I just press it to the leather with my fingers and fade the texture out around the edges.

when you post a pic of a hot chick on a forum, and people start saying that "her elbows are too pointy, i wouldn't hit it"

it's a compliment. the seat looks great. :You_Rock_Emoticon:

Cool looking seat. I really like old school tattoo artwork and I think it's perfect for leather tooling.
