Thought I would have a go with the leather tooling irons, slapped some water on a scrap piece of leather, scribed some line’s to follow and then I bashed away ☺️

for the moment it’s difficult to remain within the boarder, it’s definitely practice makes perfect, when coming to the line I tried to angle the iron so it would leave a partial print just behind the boarder line but alas i struck to hard 😟 still it was fun and relaxing😁

If that is your 1st attempt I'd say that's a bloody brilliant effect. Those tooling irons will really give a leather project a nice finish. As with everything else, you have to start somewhere but I'm really impressed at how fast you've got into this leather working. Strait in at the deep end with no messing about.

cheers Mike 👍🏻 Always through myself in at the deep end mate , it’s tactical tho lol as it’s the only way I learn, I have produced some monstrosity’s of projects when throwing myself in right enough 😂
 
Way to go @Ark79 that is a cracking piece of work!!......you must be really pleased with that :thumbsup: :)
