Thanks for the information. Oh, a Tandy guy! I have ordered more stuff to try. Maybe I don't need to seal the leather after I engrave it, but I would think I need to protect it some how.

YEs, I have used the shellac stuff, to stiff and I didn't like it. I used something the hubby has at home for saddles, it darkened the leather so that the engraving was to light. When I wash the leather after engraving to get the burnt off, then the engraving is lighter, as no more burnt.

I am sure there is a way to make this work like I want, but, don't know when I will figure it out! LOL

Thanks again for all the infomation from everyone.

Yes, I didn't think about precoating the leather, I do wood, so not sure why I didn't think of that! LOL

I love working with leather, so would like to get this down. Thanks for the tip. Will try it!

Yes, I did order some to try , will see how it works when I get it.

Yes, I have used the rounders for coaster too. They are nice to use. I do love lasering on leather, I think it is my favorite thing to use, just trying to think of more things to do with the leather and how to do it best with sealers, etc.

Thanks for the tips.
