Members silverwingit Posted October 13, 2014 Members Report Posted October 13, 2014 I've actually been thinking along these lines, not for shoes but for overlays on belts, cases, etc. I too would like to know what sort of hole punch is used for making all those tiny holes. My punches aren't that precise as they have beveled sharp edges. Maybe the only way is with a clicker? Michelle Quote
Members Grumpy Coyote Posted October 13, 2014 Members Report Posted October 13, 2014 I've been playing with brouging ideas like this (brogue is what that technique is called in shoe-making, I'm told). Marking the pattern is the tricky bit. I intend to print a pattern, then trace pretty much like you would do for tooling. Alternately, I may try this gizmo: https://www.tandyleatherfactory.com/en-usd/home/department/tools/punches/8054-00.aspx as you can set the basic pattern any way you like, and then fill gaps with a larger diameter punch.
