Nicksilva,

Yet another great embossing plate! Great detail and very smooth.

If you don't mind, what thickness is the brass plate? Are you using a backing material on the plate? What type of bits are you using?

Thanks for sharing!!!

Another beautiful plate. It is incredible how you are getting the leather to pickup the detail.
Thanks for sharing.

thank you. The depth is only 0.11", so in this case I used a 1/4" plate (since it was cheaper). strong enough no backing is necessary, just sits
on parallels in the vise. Depending on what I'm doing I use a 1/16" ball nose, 1/16" flat end mill, 1/32" endmills, and a 20 degree engraving bit (v-bit).
