    I wish I'd found this video before I attempted to cut my last strap. Thank you very much for the excellent tip!

    Late to the video, but I took a slightly different approach with mine. I modified my strap-cutter using a disc cut from a leather offcut, rather than sandpaper. It grips really well.

    Gonna add piece of rough out leather on mine, instead of sandpaper, but thank you again for tip!! Being new to leather crafts, may have been awhile before I figured this out.. lol

    My problem is setting the gap for the leather thickness properly. Any tip videos on that?

    How about adding how to load/replace the blades. I have had the worst time doing this. Thanks.

    All you have to do is tighten the head bolt with a pair of needle nose. I would use leather not sandpaper.

    I tried this but took it off because the sandpaper was destroying the blade holder.

    I was going to make a 10-15 min video on the same subject but instead just decided to tell people to stick a piece of sand paper on the little disk that tightens down in the width adjustment.

      I don’t sell these items. You can order a strap cutter from Amazon, Tandy Leather, Weaver Leather, or any retailer that sells leather tools.
      Price can range from $15 -$500.00 USD depending on what style of cutter you get, what brand, etc.
