shock Report post Posted January 6, 2018 I am making a few holsters and for one of them I would like to put a brand on the front fold. Is there a way I can brand or mimic a brand on veg tan? Hot wet it, punch it, and dye it or ??? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sheilajeanne Report post Posted January 6, 2018 (edited) You can use a leather burning kit: https://www.tandyleather.ca/en/product/leather-burning-tool-set?ip_lookup_country_id=CA&loadedFromCookie=1&session_id_token=fdc3c12121a068a8fecbea6d2e1e622923d2d311 I have a wood burning kit which I inherited from my late husband. I haven't tried it on leather yet, but I think it would probably work just fine, if you'd prefer not to give Tandy any of your money! P.S. - chuckling at your signature! Yes, we do make a mess sometimes, especially when dyes are involved, and scraps certainly come in VERY handy, especially when testing out something new! :D Edited January 6, 2018 by Sheilajeanne Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MakerUnknown Report post Posted January 7, 2018 (edited) I heat my iron and press it down on the dry leather. Not much to it. These pics I did mainly for the photo. I don't heat the iron in a fire, just with a propane torch, and I don't do it with the amount shown in the photos.
