Members humperdingle Posted December 5, 2013 Members Report Posted December 5, 2013 Hi folks, might be a daft question here... I've been making some small possibles pouches with approx 5mm thick veg tan. I want to fit a sam brown, but the screw part of the fitting won't reach through the leather to engage with the stud part. What's the best way around this? Can I buy longer screw parts? Do I just try to skive some material from under the screw part? Or is there a nice, neat, quick way? Quote
