    Hi from Chicago Leatherworks

    Hello,
    I'm a leatherworker and a prop maker for the film industry in Chicago, Il. The industry demands all kinds of custom made items, and we often have to make our own tools to get the desired effect. Being part of the "maker culture" is also about fellowship and sharing innovative designs and ideas.

    Hi ChicagoLeatherworks - welcome to HomemadeTools.net

    There are a lot of gems in the prop industry. One of my favorite wood finishes, Dead Flat Varnish, was designed for props.
