pete Report post Posted January 14, 2013 Is there a "formula" for making a rope edge with a figure beveler i.e. the width in relation to the tool, and, the spacing? I ask because I made a wallet for someone awhile ago and used the pointed beveler and it came out perfectly like a rope edge. The next time I couldn't get it right and I have been using up a lot of practice leather to get it. It seems that I go up one side and when I flip it, the rope is uneven and there is an overlap no matter where I do the second pass. I have tried overlapping the "point" exactly in between the pass on the other side, off setting it a little, right across from the first pass, etc. and it isn't smooth at all. I have used different widths and more space between the points etc.... Any suggestions? pete Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
King's X Report post Posted January 15, 2013 Oh....good one. I know that is came up before and it was documented somewhere but I cannot remember where is right now. Let me take a look and see if I can find it again. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bob Blea Report post Posted January 15, 2013 I'd be curious about how to do this too. I'm having a hard time visualizing what your describing. Bob Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
