Designed this geometric tote all laser cut and hand-stitched. Cutting the 8-9 oz leather was the hardest part. Luckily there is a lot of information on this forum. I found some settings that worked. Still had to tweak them though becuase the leather shoulders I used are 8-9oz. Depending on if it’s an 8oz or 9 oz piece being cut changes the settings slightly.
\nSpeed had to be varied between 160 and 170 depending on thickness., full power and .1 focus height.
\nThis is a great beginner project with very little tools or hardware needed. Edges skived then 4 pieces sewn together and 8 rivets added to hold the handles on.
\nPattern is available in my Etsy shop - Profesora Leather.
