Does anyone know a site with durable flat nose nose crimping pliers (preferably with a spring attached)Thank you in advance!
They are used to apply pressure to a glued edge, to help improve adhesion prior to stitching.
They can also be used to flatten the thread after stitching, instead of using a hammer.
They are not an essential item. But they do help to make sure the edges are glued together well.
Hi! Being a complete beginner, could you tell me what these would be used for? Thanks!
Thank you
I couldn't justify the cost of crimping pliers for leather. My solution was to buy a Sheet Metal Hand Seamer and then clad the jaws with leather.
Most Sheet Metal Hand Seamers are sprung.
Don't know if that helps but you can get Sheet Metal Hand Seamers from Amazon and most hardware stores.
