Simple sheath build along

[Dennis Morland]

On the right side, I messed up a small part. I will smooth it out once I wet it.

 

[Dennis Morland]

I wet the leather. Also called case the leather. In anticipation of some simple tooling. Probably a basketweave.

 

[Dennis Morland]

This is a basketweave stamp.

 

[Dennis Morland]

To use it. Lay a straight edge on the leather and lightly scribe a line with a small screwdriver. Like this.

 

[Dennis Morland]

Looks like this.

 

[Dennis Morland]

Then alternate above/below/above/below across that line. Like this.

 

[Dennis Morland]

Then go up. Like this.

 

[Dennis Morland]

Then go down. Like this.

 

[Dennis Morland]

A new stamp. I think it is called a camoflauge stamp. It is used for the edges. Just line up the lower points and go all the way around.

 

[Dennis Morland]

Looks like this.

What spacing did you use on your groover?

 

[Dennis Morland]

What spacing did you use on your groover?

3/4 on the edge. Just short of 1/2 on the top.

 

[Dennis Morland]

This is a strap cutter. It cuts straps. So that makes sense.

 

[Dennis Morland]

Use it like this.

 

[Dennis Morland]

It makes nice straight straps. This will be the belt loop.

 

[Dennis Morland]

A simple strap will definitely work for the belt loop.

 

[Dennis Morland]

Use the groover to cut the thread groove.

 

[Dennis Morland]

This is an edger. It makes sense because it edges.

 

[Dennis Morland]

You use it by pushing it around the outside like this.

 

[Dennis Morland]

All edged.
