abn Report post Posted February 5, 2007 I've heard that some folks use Dremel tools as alternatives to awls, however, I've also heard that you have to be really careful to make sure the holes are evenly spaced and line up on the back side of the leather. Apparently, a Dremel tool has a little more propensity to wander than an awl does... (I don't have any experience with Dremels, I'm just passing along what I've heard others say, so YMMV...)
