Members Spinner Posted May 14, 2012 Members Report Posted May 14, 2012 Hy mates I've a question? Which tool has been used for this Get the Pro-Tools version from Springfield Leather instead of the Tandy one. The impressions are much sharper and look cleaner. The Tandy version is more of a amoebae pattern versus the SLC actual pebble pattern. On the SLC website: (http://springfieldleather.com) the part numbers for the 3 different sizes are: PA003, PA004 and PA005. I also bought half a dozen of the PA004 and then ground custom profiles with a bench grinder/polisher to be able to get into more places with them, work great. ~Chris Tandy: Springfield: Quote Chris Three Mutts Customs Leather - http://www.threemuttscustoms.com

Plus, they're a lot more comfortable to hold in my hand compared to the other Tandy tools I have. the SLC tools I bought are more like a Sharpie in thickness compared to Tandy's little pencil.

Members HellfireJack Posted May 15, 2012 Members Report Posted May 15, 2012 Hey Spinner, that's not tandy's pebble backgrounder. That's one of the E294 matting stamps. Tandy's pebble matting tools are M88* check the link below. http://www.tandyleatherfactory.com/en-usd/home/department/Leather-Stamps/Matting-Leather-Stamps/6884-00.aspx Quote

The impression looks better than their old ones but unless the thickened the handle I'd still stick with SLC's version. Quote Chris Three Mutts Customs Leather - http://www.threemuttscustoms.com

Phatdaddy Posted May 16, 2012 Report Posted May 16, 2012 This dood ships worldwide - they do have some "buy it now" ones, price is a bit steep but may be an option. (all ebay links) Large Small Medium Just a thought, Kevin Quote
