Watch the video and see some rather mind blowing examples. And then take that class when it is offered. I want to. That looks amazing and you need so little to do it not to mention adding that skill to your arsenal

Thanks man, Serge is a master of unconventional thinking.  Plus he's jut a cool dude to hang out with.  This class is also about minimalism and making awesome things with limited tools.

Sergei Neskromski has a basket weave set of 2 stamps. One is full sized and one is half a stamp.

No need to grind your stamps in half. Just position the leather on your quartz slab (or whatever you're using as a backing) so that the stamp will fall partly on the slab, and partly off.

Obviously, it may be a little tricky depending on what your design exactly is.

That's how I get half-impressions on larger border stamps when I run out of space:

That, my friend, is a brilliant idea.
