That’s a beauty. Thanks for posting. I dyed my shotgun scabbard yesterday with Eco Flo/wool pad (first time using it). I believe it may be too thick straight from the bottle, today I’ll experiment with evening the finish out. 🫤

Are you cleaning the ash/soot with water and oiling it after the leather dries?

@kenmccoy5582 Год назад

I’m a subscriber and I have appreciated your skill and your channel for some time. Having said that; an imperfect hand carved piece is a thing of beauty and skill. A laser engraved anything is as interesting as cold McDonalds hamburger.

@Madmanmarque Год назад

I have to agree. Love RAL's work but not the laser. I build guitars and have shied away from CNC's, lasers etc. because of a certain kind of detachment I have with that kind of work.

How do you resolved the problem with engrave on leather? I lose this dark effect, and engrave become white, instead of being stay black?

He cuts a lot of his dye with alcohol. It thins out the dye and makes it go on more evenly

@nickbaron7462 Год назад

I really love the possibilities that are endless with the laser. I do have a question though on if it dries out the leather too much. When you do an engraving like in this video does it not burn the leather then crack out when you manipulate late it later?

@minerblue9641 Год назад

I'm not the video maker. But I'm sure you could figure out how to oil the leather to make it last about 20 years or longer. Think about it.

@nickbaron7462 Год назад

@@minerblue9641 yeah I’m sure there is a way. I am also into holster production and have dabbled with heat stamping. In order to get a good enough transfer it tends to burn the leather to a point that it becomes incredibly fragile. I’m just curious of how he’s keeps it from cracking out.

@nickbaron7462 Год назад

@@minerblue9641 also you are burning the leather not just heating it up. Burnt leather doesn’t just heal like live skin would. It is now damaged and looses its playability. I can’t imagine that even simply oiling it would bring enough life back to the burnt areas. Think about it.

@MrMeddle2243 5 дней назад

I,m just starting to incorporate my laser in with my leather work, how do you get the patterns you use? is it something you came up with? if so what are you useing to draw them I am useing lightburn and can not even start to end up with something like this, mainly the shape of the holster

@RoadAgentLeather 5 часов назад

I make my own designs for the most part. Certain art (the snake on this holster for instance) I purchase from Adobestock. I primarily use Adobe Illustrator for the vector graphics. I only use Lightburn or xTool Creative Space to run the machines.

@vinceoordt4289 Год назад

Is there any reason you hand sew the holster, other than it might be too thick for your machine??

@RoadAgentLeather Год назад

I usually saddle stitch the main seam by hand for maximum strength and durability.

@mdaigle192 Год назад

did you just use water and a sponge to clean it after engraving?

@RoadAgentLeather Год назад

yep. There will be soot built up around the etching. Especially when going this deep into the leather. I find the air assist increases this. I just use water to wipe it off. You can also run it under a faucet.

@JohnnyUrbanWoodsmen Год назад

@@burkhardt7372 Thats because he is using edgekote which is more of an acrylic paint then a dye, so you can slick, burnish and seal the edges and put on a nice coat of edgekote and it will stick.

@rabooey Год назад

As a business I guess can understand using modern tech but personally, nah. There's no soul in the finished product at all.

@RoadAgentLeather Год назад

My thoughts are that both technically and artistically, there's as much skill required to design and implement a piece like this as anything else. It's definitely not a "push-button, output leatherwork" thing ... although I may edit the videos to appear that way ;-).

@matthewb8229 Год назад

@@RoadAgentLeather While I knew it wasn't "push button", I never fully understood the amount of time it took to get a decent looking file to (in my case) print. I spent hours(!) designing a crankbait fishing lure for my 3D printer. Thankfully it worked like I wanted when I was done!
