How do I get a hold of your pattern book’s please ~and do you ship to Great Britain 🇬🇧 (Wales to be exact) ~ I find so many companies will not ship here ~ 😭?!
Joe Meling, I have another idea which might work. How about using a sheet of plastic, drawing a pattern on it. Then get some 15lb-20lb fishing line, and superglue the line onto your pencil marks? That would create a similar version of the old Tandy craftaids. They have some pretty amazing glues these days.
It can a little if it’s a flanky piece but I line most all of my projects so it’s not a problem. If you’re not using a liner you can Skive off any of the fuzzies.

Which would be better for making a tap off: straight or pointed swivel knife blade?
What swivel knife and size do you use? It looks like a great size and it cuts great.
Joe can tape the back of my thin billfold to tool so it doesn't stretch?
Now that is interesting 🤔
Could use masters quick shine on it and wouldn’t get in the cuts

Amazing tutorial, do you sell your pattern template? Or would I just print those out online?

Would it be wise to occasionally treat the tap off with saddle soap?
Personally I don’t treat my tap offs with anything and I have some that I’ve used for years.
Is there any trick to continuing the pattern down a belt or does that come with practice?
It’s a matter of matching the pattern up as you move to the next section.
Why doesn’t the raised line interfere with the swivel knife action?
With the leather being wet down it doesn’t seem to bother it.
Is there any benefit to baking the tapoff templet to harden it, has anyone tried that?
I’ve never tried that before but once it’s dry I haven’t really had any troubles with them.

And also doesn’t that tap when you pill it off the back mess the leather up by making some of the back lift up
