Jamie very nice job! How did you attach the leather to the wood? Think Ill make one for my wife and carve her initials on the wood.

Hi Daniel! Thank you so much for your comment. I used leather glue but I would advise to staple or hammer in some studs!

I glued two pieces of leather together for a thicker material overall. In terms of internal structure there was no thing extra that I added, though It would be nice to add felt on the inside!

This is John would you happen to have a file that I can open in vcarve pro? I need a DFX or SVG file to open in vcarve pro.

Any instructions might be helpful...also a picture of it being open so we could see how it works.

How did you finish your edges to the leather? Sew them? :)

I would really like to make this but need a bit more help on HOW to make it. It looks like one piece of leather that wraps all the way around and then around a dowel? How do you open and close?
