Molded Card Case Acrylic Template

Why You’ll Love It:

This is a first for us. Not just a cutting template, but an acrylic mould you wet form leather over. You get the templates to cut every piece, and the moulding blocks to shape the card pocket into a real three dimensional curve. Wet forming used to mean carving your own form out of wood and hoping. This takes that out.

What You’ll Get:

• Full acrylic template set for cutting every panel
• Acrylic moulding blocks for wet forming the card pocket
• Heavy duty acrylic that holds its shape under clamping pressure

Things to Know Before You Buy:

• Wet forming needs veg tan. Chrome tanned leather will not hold the shape
• Case the leather properly before you clamp it, and let it dry fully in the mould
• 4 to 5 oz veg tan is the sweet spot for this build

Best For:

• Moulded card cases and slim wallets
• Makers who want to try wet forming without building their own forms
• Craft show stock, since a moulded case looks like far more work than it is

More About This Product:

A moulded card pocket is one of those details that makes people pick a piece up. The curve holds cards without a strap or a snap, and it looks like something that came out of a proper workshop. Once the mould does the shaping for you, the whole build is straightforward.
