I made up a set of these for a friend for Christmas but I think I might keep them for myself. I seem to be stockpiling stuff that was never meant for me.
This would be an easyish, albeit time consuming project for a beginner that would require an adjustable disc cutter to cut the desired size, an edge bevel tool, various grits of sandpaper, some burnishing gum and lots of elbow grease.
This is 4mm, stiff handled vegetable tanned buffalo leather, 4" diameter coasters with nicely radiused edges which have been sanded up to 400grit and burnished with tokonole and hard wood. I either need to now make another set, give my mate something else or accept they were never meant for me. I'm terrible with choices.
Anyway, some pictures.
