Looking good Hunio! What ounce are you using? I forgot to ask.

I don't understand 'ounce' meaning.

If you ask about weight of leather, I don't know that.

when it haven't heavy weight, I don't care about leather's weight,

I generally use 2~0.5mm thickness.

Today's works.

stamping & make zipper parts.

[benlilly1]

This is what I mean, 2~0.5mm thickness. Thanks

It's is awesome! I'm really enjoying watching your technique unfold. What is that large skiving tool you're using to remove/thin out the leather edges? Thanks and please keep posting your progress!

[WScott]

That looks like an English skiving knife ....they come in a few shapes

Hey there Hunio.

Did you stitch the brown lining to the zip piece when you did the sewing to put the zip in? or is it just glued on somehow.

cant see that in the pics.

By the way nice work mate. Your mother will like it Im sure.
