TheShiek2008 Report post Posted September 4, 2015 I have a customer that wants me to complete a project for him with alligator belly. He wants a spade in the middle of it. Stitched or embossed however I decide to do it. Is it possible to use a laser to burn the spade into the alligator belly? I have seen people do this to normal veg tan leather but what about animal skins? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tiara Report post Posted September 5, 2015 It seems likely that would work. If you have access to laser printing, perhaps take a scrap in for trial? A pyrography tool would probably also work. One video series online about pyrography on leather mentions using it on other leathers than veg tan with the warning that the fumes from chrome tanned leather can be toxic so be sure to use proper ventilation or chemical fumes respirator.
