Members JMWendt Posted August 1, 2016 Members Report Posted August 1, 2016 Great work. Great work area too. I wish I had that kind of space to work with. Quote
Members stu925 Posted August 1, 2016 Members Report Posted August 1, 2016 Awesome work, you should be very proud of it. The shop ain't too shabby either. Stu Quote
Members rickdroid Posted August 1, 2016 Members Report Posted August 1, 2016 How did you letter the guitar strap? Was that freehand lettering, did you have some kind of template; that lettering is pretty much perfect and I would like to be able to achieve that quality. Your work is really really nice and I am envious of your workspace. rick Quote
Members Otto6294 Posted August 2, 2016 Author Members Report Posted August 2, 2016 Rick, I enlarged the lettering on a copy machine and laid it on the leather. I used a fairly sharp stylus to emboss through the paper onto the leather. Then you just straighten it all up freehand with the swivel knife. I then beveled around all of it. Quote
