Wood burning tool on leather

[ginevive]

Anyone else ever do this? I gave it a try on some deer scraps, and like the effect.

Nice. I never realized how demanding it is until I tried my hand at this.

[CrabCrazy]

yeah...its an art to itself....you did good

[ginevive]

Thank You. I am going to practice more; I did burn through on the mane, as you can see in the photo. At first, I did not like the burning hide smell, but it grows on you! (hopefully, I am not creating hazardous fumes, lol.)

We have tried it and it seems to come out very nice.

I was also thinking of doing it outdoors. But I can get a respirator if need be. (haven't done it in a few weeks, but I will definitely keep this in mind.
