VIDEO TUTORIAL
The STL archive contains STL files for the standard father mold and for 4 different mother molds depending on the leather thickness you want to choose:
▶ 2.0-2.4 mm (5-6 oz)
▶ 2.3-2.7 mm (6-7 oz)
▶ 2.6-3 mm (6.5-7.5 oz)
▶ 3.0-3.5 mm (7.5-9 oz)

💡 If you intend to reuse the mold for many projects, I recommend printing at 100% infill.
💡 If you want to use it for a project, we recommend still going for at least 25% infill + 8 layers thickness for the walls.
⚠️ Protect the mold when using it with woodworking clamps.
💡 Please watch the video as well. For this project it is mandatory.
