I’m looking forward to seeing the pics. Both of the example and the students

Webdevel · April 11, 2018, 1:44am

Here is a finished example of the Belt Pouch we’ll be making.

Scott_Blevins · April 11, 2018, 2:09am

Looks like chrome tan. Is the leather weight/thickness fairly substantial for the medieval belt bag? Will tooling be an option?

Webdevel · April 11, 2018, 2:20am

This is about a 5oz finished chrome tanned leather yes. I prefer finished leather because we can get a fully completed project done in the time we have.

Sadly, you cannot tool this leather.

HOWEVER, You can absolutely use this pattern on Veg-Tan leather, and tool it, then dye it.

Scott_Blevins · April 11, 2018, 2:22am

Cool, thanks! I may Bring some 6 oz. veg tan belly to the class I’ll be attending to get the pattern cut out for a future project.

Webdevel · April 11, 2018, 2:33am

Please feel free to. I’m also going to link the vector file on the wiki or committee drive so you could also laser cut it directly on the veg tan if you like.

talkers · April 11, 2018, 4:52am

and laser it.

uhmmm, just as Jorge said

That’s a fun pattern.

Webdevel · April 11, 2018, 12:13pm

ahem. ;)
