Members celticleather Posted January 15, 2012 Members Report Posted January 15, 2012 There's a pretty good method here, in Badger's post, using a junior hacksaw frame: http://leatherworker...h=1 I use it all the time, and it really works! Quote When everyone is somebody, then no one's anybody
Tree Reaper Posted January 15, 2012 Report Posted January 15, 2012 (edited) This is a good idea. I made one this morning from a hand tile cutter and a soon to be broken boot lace. I'm very pleased with the results. There's a pretty good method here, in Badger's post, using a junior hacksaw frame: http://leatherworker...h=1 I use it all the time, and it really works!

electrathon Posted January 15, 2012 Report Posted January 15, 2012 A far easier answer is to simply use your strop that you already have. If you have a piece of leather that is glued to a thin board you simply use the edge (top and one side). Aaron Quote
Members Dwight Posted January 15, 2012 Members Report Posted January 15, 2012 I took two pieces of scrap pine, . . . several drywall screws, . . . a scrap piece of leather and made a beveler strop that works real well for me. The whole thing is about 10 inches long, . . . and sharpens my #4's real well, . . . real quick. May God bless, Dwight beveler strop.bmp Quote If you can breathe, . . . thank God. If you can read, . . . thank a teacher. If you are reading this in English, . . . thank a veteran. www.dwightsgunleather.com
