Making a Woggle
All
woggles are made to order; I do not keep any stock. I try and keep a wide range
of coloured leather in stock, but it’s possible that certain colours won’t be
available at all times. I don’t make all colours available to all woggles, as
some designs just won’t work with certain coloured leather. Leather is a
natural product and some imperfections might be noticeable. I do check each
woggle blank before it’s engraved to try and make sure only the best pieces are
used.
Woggle
blanks are cut out using a steel die and a clicker press which uses 8 tonnes of
pressure. To engrave the design into the leather a design is first created on a
computer using a variety of different software applications. The design is then
imported into the program that controls the laser machine and final sizing,
laser power and speed settings are made. Different coloured leathers often
require different settings. The leather blank is held in place in a wooden jig
inside the laser machine, then the design is sent from the computer to the laser
which can take between 40 and 80 seconds to engrave, depending on the size of
the woggle and the design being engraved.
Once
finished the woggle has the soot residue wiped off with a damp sponge, some
colours such as white and gloss colours require further cleaning with Isopropyl
Alcohol to ensure the finished woggle looks its best. The woggle is fastened
with a metal rivet.
