Members Studio-N Posted February 6, 2015 Members Report Posted February 6, 2015 Finally completed this wallet using a couple of my 3d embossing plates. Masked the aliens with supersheen, applied Saddle tan antique gel and then used Leather Balm to pull the black out and seal the leather. I haven't laced anything in about a year. Once I got my rythm I was ok, but it still took a good 6 hours to finish it up. Cheers! Quote

Members Studio-N Posted February 6, 2015 Author Members Report Posted February 6, 2015 thank you Bob. This is for show and tell at my CNC group next week. they've seen my models and plates, but I haven't shown a finished product that uses them. I think they'll like it. Nick Quote
raysouth Posted February 6, 2015 Report Posted February 6, 2015 Great and very different wallet. Nick, are you leaning more to using cnc than laser? Just curious. Received the logos today and many thanks. They are very nice. God Bless. Ray Quote
Members Studio-N Posted February 7, 2015 Author Members Report Posted February 7, 2015 Hi Ray and thanks. I think it just an evolution. I still do mostly laser work. I just don't get to show those as lots of them are proprietary works for other clients. I'm enjoying the CNC since it is the 'new toy' and there is just so much new stuff to learn. And in this case I am pesonally enjoying the more realistic look it has and for me - the laser is the business, the CNC is still my personal hobby. These new idea are keeping me fresh. Pretty soon I'll be mixing the two and my head will explode until some new technology comes out (and in fact I have some new technolgy coming which is going to pretty cool). Many regards, Nick Quote
