WinterBear Report post Posted August 10, 2011 Nice tattoo seat. Wich tool did you use for the circles/bubbles background? can't find any similar at my Tandy store. "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. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WinterBear Report post Posted August 10, 2011 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. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spinner Report post Posted August 10, 2011 Good looking seat Rickey. 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. Chris Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WinterBear Report post Posted August 11, 2011 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. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

randypants Report post Posted October 13, 2011 Huh????? sorry, it's a joke. 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. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
