Members Sc00t3r Posted March 25, 2016 Members Report Posted March 25, 2016 you could use a 3d printer if you have a bed big enough to print a craftaid. if you own the printer, you could scale it accordingly Scoot Quote
Members Vana Posted April 4, 2016 Members Report Posted April 4, 2016 I don't know if it's already mentioned, but sheet protectors do also work fine, and are cheap. Vana Quote
Members LoneWolf1973 Posted October 31, 2016 Members Report Posted October 31, 2016 I bought a couple packs or overhead projector sheets (at a thrift shop) and if the design is simple I use a permanent marker and trace it on the film (just make sure you don't place the ink side on the leather...been there) or of the design is larger or more in-depth I tape a paper copy to a sheet of the film and tape another over it...then I cut it out of the film leaving about 1/4 inch around the design and seal the edges with tape. You can also (usually) put these sheets thru a printer but, again, do not place ink side down on the leather. Then I use a ball point pen to transfer the pattern...and being in the plastic film the image can be reused. I don't know but this may seem like alot of work but it seems to work for a lasting pattern. I am sure there are better ways but getting that film like I did (usually about $30 a pack...I paid $1) it's what I'm doing for now. Quote https://www.facebook.com/lonewolfsleather/
Members LZpattern Posted November 21, 2016 Members Report Posted November 21, 2016 Plastic film is the best choice, and the parchment paper is the second one. Quote Patterns & Tools gold mine: www.leathercraftpattern.com www.lzpattern.com
