DavidL Report post Posted August 9, 2014 I saw online a person was making a purse and instead of using a splitter said that they used a machine skiver and did it bit by bit. How is this done? is it effortless to do? Is it an even skive? Thanks. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nuttish Report post Posted August 24, 2014 What kind of machine was this person using? I can show you examples of a split on a Fortuna style machine. They're ugly, but perfectly serviceable if the flesh doesn't need to be exposed. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DavidL Report post Posted August 24, 2014 It was a machine style splitter like a fortuna. Is the piece the same thickness throughout? a picture would help. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
