Expand Depends a lot on what you are looking for. What type of patterns? Bags, holsters, carving/tooling, Etc. http://www.bighousedaddy.com/ is one that came up recently on another thread. Tom Quote
Members Mr Gaunt Posted April 20, 2019 Members Report Posted April 20, 2019 I love the patterns from Tony See. Most are pdfs, but a few are acrylic patterns. He also sells some buckles and acrylic lenses to fit some of his mask/goggle patterns. The more complicated builds have free video tutorials on YouTube. https://www.etsy.com/shop/DieselpunkRo?ref=condensed_trust_header_icon_items Quote

Also they can be easily modified to suit. All this makes it great for learners like myself to produce a quality item. Quote

I'll put another vote in for DieselPunk on Etsy. I have a couple of his patterns and they are well documented. Only thing I don't like is they PDFs set up to print on A4 paper. I haven't built them yet, but have looked over the plans several times and as soon as I get my butt to an office supply store for the right paper, I'll get to work. Quote

Expand You don't need special paper. A4 is just a setting for your printer. As you're about to print, click on printing options or printer properties and set the paper size to A4. All that does is print it in actual size. Quote

A4 paper is a little longer than US letter (8.27" x 11.69" vs 8.5" x 11") so if the pattern takes up the full page on A4 it will be cut off on the bottom when printed on US letter. Since it is so difficult, and expensive, to purchase A4 paper in the US, I get around it by telling the printer I have A4 and loading the printer with US legal. Quote
