Members Famah Posted January 26, 2017 Members Report Posted January 26, 2017 That's really awesome. I love stingray, and I like how the whole outer surface is made of it, not just a patch or applique. How did you find the cutting and stitching? I've heard it's really challenging. May I ask how you tackled it? I have a small skin at home that I haven't gotten the courage to work with yet. Quote

Got one from Springfield last year and have yet to find the guts and the purpose to use. Quote
Members Windrider30 Posted January 27, 2017 Members Report Posted January 27, 2017 Its a ing pain in the ass to cut...hand sritching is easy if you use a pricking iron. Best way to cut sting ray is from the back of it. Oh and you cant bunish the edge just cover it in edge dye..or i should say i couldnt burnish it. Geat ready to dull a few edges when cutting!! Quote
Members Crashresq Posted January 27, 2017 Members Report Posted January 27, 2017 Looks great... I was at Springfield leather earlier this week and looked at the stingray, but decided I'll wait a little longer before I tackle that one! Quote
Members Sofaspud Posted January 29, 2017 Members Report Posted January 29, 2017 You should be proud of that. Looks great. Don't think I would try to tackle that. Quote
