Over time, all of us, one way or another, are faced with the search for weighting materials for fixing patterns, tedals of products at the marking stage, etc. On the one hand, there is nothing complicated here, but on the other hand, I want this item to be practical in use, to take up a minimum of space with a lot of weight. Ideally, this should be a metal object of the correct shape. Huge washers, bearings, dumbbells are often used ...
On one of my trips to my wife's parents, I was lucky to find her :))) An old Soviet-era weight was lying around in the yard, biding its time. She knew she was made for something more. I languished in dust and dirt for decades.
In general, the best sinker for the workshop is difficult to come up with. They removed the rust a little, and so that the weight beaten by time would not scratch everything it touches, I decided to cover it with leather. At the same time, I practiced embossing and sewing leather with ends at an angle of 90 degrees.
I know, ask what and how? I will answer a few questions ahead of schedule, if you add it here :)
The embossing was done on vegetable-tanned belt leather, of very good quality. I bought it in the store atk.kiev.ua
