Help! How do I...
Hi. What do you use for padding to give a volume to leather, but with soft and bouncy feel? I've seen some use foam sheets. Specific suggestions and where to buy would be greatly appreciated! Thank you.

- Help! How do I...Hello everyone, Have you ever dealt with hidden neodymium magnets that: 1 - Broke inside a purse? 2 - Lost their strength over time? 3 - Damaged electronics, smartphones, or credit cards? High-end luxury brands like « H » seem to avoid using them, and Peter only used them once in a Metro pochette. Is there a reason for that? I'm considering using them in my upcoming design, but their brittleness is a concern. I've come across magnets coated in rubber or epoxy, and some encased in steel, but these options add unwanted bulk. If your were aiming at lifetime longevity for a high-end item, what solution would you go with? Thank you in advance !Like
- Help! How do I...Has anyone tried Intercom Ecostick 1804? I need to buy more glue. Usually, I buy Ecostick 1816b (polychloroprene latex), but now one of my sources has Ecostick 1804 (polyurethane-based adhesive). Ecostick 1804 is supposed to be more viscous, designed for manual application rather than machine application, and is supposed to have a stronger bond. However, many people online seem to insist that 1816b has the stronger bond.Like
