Members LLWork Posted January 20, 2015 Members Report Posted January 20, 2015 I've been carrying a more basic version of these around for the last year, and I absolutely love it. I decided to revisit the idea and see if I could make some improvements. Pretty happy with the result! Quote
Members CrazedLemming Posted January 20, 2015 Members Report Posted January 20, 2015 Beautiful stuff. How are you cutting them? Laser? Quote

Members Kymberly Posted January 20, 2015 Members Report Posted January 20, 2015 Wow... love this idea! :-) Quote
Members CrazedLemming Posted January 20, 2015 Members Report Posted January 20, 2015 What machine are you running? I love what's possible with a laser. I keep drooling over the machines but never seem to come up with the extra cash for a decent one that will do everything I want. Quote

I keep drooling over the machines but never seem to come up with the extra cash for a decent one that will do everything I want. Well, it isn't mine, but It is an Epilog Legend 36EXT. It's an impressive machine. Retail price is $29,995. Wow... love this idea! :-) Thanks! Quote

Members Calait Posted January 20, 2015 Members Report Posted January 20, 2015 Love the concept. Quote
Members biglew Posted January 20, 2015 Members Report Posted January 20, 2015 I also use a 150 watt laser.... i use it until I perfect a small item then i decide if I am going to do a lot of them... then I get a die made. Otherwise I use a laser... maybe you can tell me the best way you have found to clean the edges of the cut leather?? thanks Lew Quote

Otherwise I use a laser... maybe you can tell me the best way you have found to clean the edges of the cut leather?? thanks Lew Sure! I just do a buff with a clean rag and take off as much of the char as possible, then a quick pass with a lightly dampened rag. Another quick pass with some 240 grit sandpaper and then gum trag and a burnish. I've also discovered a good pencil eraser will remove the smudges on the front of the leather. Love the concept. Appreciate that. Incredibly cool! Thanks again builder! Edited January 21, 2015 by LLWork Quote
