Good video Shawn. I haven't heard of that border before. The one I am familiar with is the serpentine border. For those of you that don't know that border you can google the images.

Thank you very much Shawn, very nice and clear video, why is it called the Carlos border?
Is it called after a person who cut it at first time?

I blame Ernie Marsh for the Carlos border, but it is the name given to a particular stamp in leather carving. It is fun but if you are not careful, it will twist you mind!!!!!!LOLOOLOOO

Shawn,

Thank you! Very clear demo, nicely video-ed. It takes time to film this and get it up on the 'net, very generous!

Nice job Shawn, we call it a Carlos below the Equator. When I do it on leather, I measure the increments on the inside radius, this ensures I don't pinch the design up on tighter arcs. Ty

Thank you Shawn, good video.

I know it as Carlos border, Lenny is dating himself by using archaic terms ;)
