bylinesupplyco Report post Posted January 21, 2014 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fbvplFLjDmM I am very new to leather working, however this project seemed like a good beginners project. I purchased some 5-6 oz. leather in hopes of making this very durable. It seems far too thick now that Ive tried it. Any tips or advice to get this project accomplished would help thank you!

Sjohnsone Report post Posted January 21, 2014 3 oz should do ya, bud. 5-6 is a bit overkill. You'll end up with a massive leather phone brick! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
King's X Report post Posted January 21, 2014 Go to YouTube and check out Ian Atkinson. If the weight is not listed in the description, give him a holler. He is in the UK. He is a nice fella. If you cannot find him, check out my FB page and I should have his under my 'likes' page. Good luck Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bylinesupplyco Report post Posted January 22, 2014 Ive tried contacting Ian, however I have not gotten a reply. Im going to make a guess that this is 2-3 oz. leather. Any opinions? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
