ChelseaThom Report post Posted October 26, 2021 Hi leatherworker community, I need to skive my round gussets but am having a bit of trouble with the skiving machine (SIECK HA 50). I'm wondering if you guys can give me tips on skiving curves/round parts. I can't seem to find any resources online to learn about it. Maybe you can point me to a video or give me some tricks and tips. Thank you! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
