  • Also, the laser cutter will give you burnt edges on the leather that you'll probably want to remove, and I expect it will also impart a strong smoky aroma that will be difficult to remove.

    I have a Cricut that was mentioned before. I've never tried it with leather but it would only be able to handle pretty thin leather I'd expect. I'd probably recommend a Silhouette over a Cricut anyway. Cricut's software is awful and their business practices are predatory.

    If you can find a local maker space, you can probably try all these things out, and talk to a bunch of people with a lot more knowledge than me.

    After a day with my laser cutter I'm ready to sell it and get a Silhouette. The stink, the complexity....it's a nightmare. It needs to be in the hands of a techie with a shed. It's got a great big fucking LASER for chrissake. It's water cooled, with a camera and all sorts.
