      Thx pegasi!
      And relac88, you are correct.
      To learn about my new product, I've decided to make my own tools, suited for the way I wish to make my straps.

      This is my version of an Edge Beveller

      It’s supposed to trim the leather edge at a 45deg angle but I guess I made it wrong. It now cuts! Going for Version2...
      BTW, this was made from a claw-type screwdriver…modified ten10 style!

      There’s more to come!

          I think this is called a “Wing Divider” but mine is “Wingless”

          This tool marks a stitching line parallel to the edge of the leather.

                          Some tools I’ve bought…
                          Hole punches, thonging chisel and strap-end punches, etc.



                          For those who are venturing into leather craft, you can easily make your own tools... not all of them lah!

                                Jerk Needles are popular with ‘Ole Skool’ Leather craftsman for stitching and repair.

                                Here is my version made from an ear-pick (insert foto)


                                I bought the wooden handle from a local hardware shop and drilled a small hole to accommodate the thin ear-pick. Once it’s forced in, I glued the base of the thin metal with epoxy.

                                Next, using long-nose pliers, curl the tip and sharpen it such that it can pierce leather without problems. Since I don’t have a bench grinder, I had to sweat it out using my needle file.

                                Still a long journey to go...
