KennethM Report post Posted January 4, 2020 So a customer wants a biker wallet that has a zipper with a Mexican braid. I never done any braiding before. Do I need certain chisels to punch the holes?What size braid should I use?What typ of needles are used? Trying to find a good pattern as well. Not trying to turn th customer down but if it's alot of $ to get the tools ,etc then I will Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
