Pro Tip: The TandyPro® by Leather Machine Co. NP4 Skiving Machine has been a game changer for my shop. Skiving leather used to take me hours of hard work and stress. Now I can easily skive leather for my projects without the added worry of ruining a piece of leather by over skiving and creating rips or tears.
