@uglyknees, I’ll be at DMS tonight and can show you how to set snaps in leather.

Another related reply that didn’t get moved because it was also in response to another unrelated project:

I’ll be at the space from about 4-7 Friday night. If you happen to be there I can show you how to set these kinds of button studs.

#10

I can’t come :frowning: symphony tickets
First world problems

#11

no worries. next time then!

#12

I’m going to be at the Maker Space this afternoon around 4-7 to cut more of these wrist rulers. If anyone would like to watch, or chat come on over. I can probably even be persuaded to give you a copy of the file I made for it :slight_smile:

@webdevel, the more I look at your ruler wristbands, the more I like them :+1:

Would you mind sharing the file? You could store them on the Shared Committees drive (Comittees Drive\creativearts\Leatherworking[your folder name]) for general access…

I’m going to be at the space Thursday mid-day and this weekend - will either of you be available to show me? No biggie if not.

@uglyknees
Can’t make it this week (traveling on Friday). Perhaps this video would sort it out for you? They say a picture is worth 1,000 words.

The main thing is to use the rounded anvil under the cap of the snap so that it isn’t flattened when hammering.

#17

I’m not sure if I’ll make it there this weekend yet. If I can, it’ll be on Sunday. Did you want to learn how to set Snaps like in the video or button studs like I used on the wrist ruler? I think I’m confused.

#18

Studs - I think they are more tuned with my aesthetic.

#19

I should be there at some point this weekend and i can show you how to set those ‘aesthetic’ studs.

We could probably work through the leather/laser part too if Jorge can share his file?

#20

Noted. I’ll be finishing a few more wrist rulers this evening. I’ll make a short video for you in case we don’t get a chance to get together.

#21

How about I put the file and a word doc with pictures on finishing them too? That way it can be project someone can do on their own? or it can become a Leather n Lasers class I suppose.

Maybe we can have a “Try this member project, here’s all the info” section someplace :slight_smile:
