So much edgier than sowing, it's gorgeous I see that crafting it was a veritable ritual...

Do you have a grommet setting press?

If not, that is a WHOLE lot of grommets.

I am doing them manually
And this one was the fist corset ever and got no tools then.

Jesus. I think by then I would've just hammered my own forehead and been done with it. Did you do it with a hand kit? I'm using the osbourne kit.

In the past I was using only hammer and some steel rod with circular sharp edge (dunno the name), it's only around 400 holes

Great job.

I don't know how thick your leather is but you may have struggled with a sewing machine Personally I sew all my leather by hand - If it's fine and soft I use a glover's needle - if it's thick or hard I use and awl and saddlers needles.

Thanks!

It's special machine designed for shoe making
You can find a photo of it in my gallery.

You're welcome and yes, I saw your machine - looks fantastic - I have to sew all my shoes by hand - but then as I'm doing 15th century shoes a machine isn't appropriate.
