Members carguy4471 Posted February 21, 2017 Members Report Posted February 21, 2017 Inketjet? Laser? Is this something that could be done in my canon pro 100? That sucker will print canvas. Quote
Members justingschneider Posted February 21, 2017 Author Members Report Posted February 21, 2017 don't know you would have to try. not sure how flexible the ink you have is i do mine on large format digital printers i can not imagine you would be able to feed thick leather through a at home printer Quote
Members carguy4471 Posted February 21, 2017 Members Report Posted February 21, 2017 I have heard of someone using the canon pro 900 which has a straight through feed but I think they could only get 3 ounce leather through it. My feed is not straight, but close. I also use 9 ounce leather though. Quote
Contributing Member JLSleather Posted February 21, 2017 Contributing Member Report Posted February 21, 2017 I would probably have to figure the design into teh style of holster, like as in the Glock 42 ink design fits the Glock 42 holster design. No ink crossing stitch lines, flags follow contours of the finished shape.. 'n' such. But I'm not obsessive. That's my story, 'n' I'm stickin tuit. Quote "Observation is 9/10 of the law."

Members justingschneider Posted February 21, 2017 Author Members Report Posted February 21, 2017 (edited) i did that on the text because it would be hard to read but thought the image would not lose too much Edited February 21, 2017 by justingschneider Quote
Members cjartist Posted February 21, 2017 Members Report Posted February 21, 2017 You'll probably be able to sell a ton of those. But then I wonder what separates you from an outfit that is mass producing this sort of thing in China? Don't get me wrong, I'm not slamming you. I mean it is business after all.
