This template can be used to make a leather cover for SteFly's glider remote stick. Watch his video [here](https://youtu.be/mWNLIJbeU7Y) for the detailed instructions.
A few tips:
- Soak the leather before applying it to the stick. Then it can be shaped during the stitching and it conforms to the stick much better.
- The punch marks are on the one side of the seam only. The length of the other side of the seam seam is not the same so the spacing of the holes should be different as well. I made the second row of holes during the sawing - that way I was able to make a prettier seam (IMO).
- Do not apply the glue on the whole surface of the leather/stick. It is better to have approx 1cm of unglued leather along the future seam. The unglued part of the leather can be then stretched better using the needles and thread.
