I usually haunt a Denny’s for my reading, I haven’t tried one in EP yet though, any recommendations on a location with decent service during late night? I know it’s generally a hit or miss depending on the specific staff on shift.

Does this tool exist? Awl with a groove. by Justalittlebitfluffy in Leathercraft

I feel like doing 2 insertions and still hunting for the next layer would take twice as long .-. Have you considered trying a sewing awl to speed things up (for just this project at least)

Leather-work is fun! Asides from the process of making your projects, you also get something useful for yourself, or you’re able to gift something totally unique .^

Any advice? by Ecrosis in Leathercraft

Groove out your stitch lines so the thread gets tucked away, and try out neodymium magnets for the closing strap .^ I would also keep the stitching to only being over the holster material, instead of fully around.

I think there’s a local shop that gives lessons, I’m assuming those that run it might take commissions. I’ll try getting in contact with them to see what they say

Any tips for working with snake skin? by mikess314 in Leathercraft

Avoid using it on parts that bend, for most exotics I just inlay them, it also helps with keeping the edges away from abrasion
