Materials testing



The past week I have been looking at materials to use in the wallet, I have looked at various grades of shore hardness within silicone and poly urethane ranges and also been looking at different types of leather.
I'm really interested in getting a look at some tanned fish skin close up but am struggling to find any place with it.

I think for part of my final product it will be made out of poly urethane to get a smooth and tough edge to the product. Iv just received my order from 'mouldlife' with a shore 50 2kg tub and done a few tests and when cured seems to be the right stuff.
