Members alpenabbq Posted February 21, 2013 Members Report Posted February 21, 2013 Looking for a tool or method for edging an oblong punched slot in 2 plys of 8-9 oz, I've tried using a machinist deburr tool (Vargus, Noga), works great on the straight, but tears the leather when going around the radius. Any help or suggestions would be appreiated Quote
Members JustKate Posted February 21, 2013 Members Report Posted February 21, 2013 There are punches made for that purpose: Oblong punches Quote
gringobill Posted February 21, 2013 Report Posted February 21, 2013 Barry King makes an edger specifically for especially tight inside curves. It is a bissonet edger with a really tight curve. I use one for edging some punched slots. The bigger the slots the better it works, 3/4-1" in length. Quote
