			Basic Leather working tools
		
			
				
					I'm making out my christmas list and want to gather a set of basic tools that will allow me to do some basic sporran straps and belt modifications and maybe make my own belts.
 I know I'll need a
 strap cutter
 edge beveller #4
 Mini-Punch set
 
 I'm thinking the #4 beveller to handle nice think leather for a belt, is this correct or would another size be better?
 
 Are there any other tools that would improve the quality of my finished product or simplify the process?

					Cavscout, I haven't done leather working for so long I am out of touch.  However if you go to the Tandy leather web site I believe they have a FAQ area that should be able to help.
 Send pictures of you working.....I just want to see a kilted cow doing leather work!
