Sheilajeanne Report post Posted December 19, 2020 (edited) This just totally blew my mind. Apologies for the swearing - but hey, we're all adults here! 50,000 years, and still the same tool... Blowing up the important part of the article so it's easier to read! Edited December 19, 2020 by Sheilajeanne Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Retswerb Report post Posted December 20, 2020 Love it. Definitely one of the appeals of leatherworking for me is the sense that these materials and tools can be used to make something that’s been being made forever, or something totally new. Endless possibilities even with a limited toolset. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sheilajeanne Report post Posted December 21, 2020 That would work, too. I think horn is even harder than bone. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sheilajeanne Report post Posted January 15, 2021 And now, as a result of this discussion, I just had a package delivered to me with no fewer that FOUR bone burnishers/creasers in it! My sincere thanks to my Tolkien fellowship friend, Elengil! Anyone need a couple of folders? It will take me more than a lifetime to wear these out, so might as well pay it forward!
