Looks great, but the problem that I see here is that two of those weights will gradually get lighter and lose effectiveness over time. The others look really great, too. You also triggered a thought - maybe make a weight that is "indented" - sort of like a donut filled in on one side of the hole - that would make a weight that would also be a safer coaster, and might even be good to hold your smaller dye bottles more safely. - Bill Quote

Two of those are already empty! As for your suggestion, I’ve already thought that exact thing and may try it when orders for these let up. Gonna be tricky because of the size though.

Members battlemunky Posted May 5, 2021 Members Report Posted May 5, 2021 More excellent examples Mike! Are you using a roller for the texture in the middle or a stamp? If you are stamping, that is some amazing consistency across the work. Quote
Members Nailbanger Posted May 6, 2021 Members Report Posted May 6, 2021 (edited) Very nice! airbrush? Edited May 6, 2021 by Nailbanger Quote
Members RoguePatriotLeather Posted May 6, 2021 Members Report Posted May 6, 2021 Very nice work! I too am wondering about the center texture. Quote
Moderator immiketoo Posted May 8, 2021 Author Moderator Report Posted May 8, 2021 Thanks everyone! Yes, I am using an airbrush to create the fades. I will try the hand applied fade soon, but it will require molding after the fact so I’ve been hesitant. Quote Learnleather.com
