That would be nice if it wasnt one of the most niche markets in the world. I dont mind doing it by hand at all, the real speed bump in production is taking that blank template and creating some form of art out of it. Its what separates all of my pouches from one another, even if i make dozens of owl or honey badger pouches, none will be identical.
We are a niche within a niche (and possibly another niche beyond that!). A group of enthusiasts relying on obscure historical references to re-invent a technology that was largely abandoned (other than the Balearic Islands) centuries ago.
This, of course, does not take away from your craftsmanship. You produce some of the best looking slings that I have ever seen.
