Peacocks ... part 2

in #leatherwork7 years ago

i have tooled all the pieces, as needed tooling, there is still the lining to plan and cut, & then attach. so i began the painful process of punching all the holes for stitching, quickly blisters appear, owie! ... so i devised a plan with an ancient ol' pair of kidgloves (from the eighties when we dressed up proper), i cut the fingers off and viola i finished this gargantuan job without too much hurt

all in readiness for the stitchery ... which comes after the colours irridescent, my favourite part of the process ...

Beautiful work!!!! I'll be checking out more :)

You should get a set of 1, 2 and 6 prong chisels......So you can do it quicker and less painful...... T_T

Yeah.......I can't do it everyday too. I hate that I need to put down my leather work and pick it up later and on and on......

Perhaps you can get the 6 prong chisel from Amazon or Ebay.

this one has three teeth, also it hurts 'cause i don't do it every day, the one pictured would be a win hey?? thanx :)
