Just realized my headband corners went from ragged to crisp after I switched to a bone folder I heated slightly with a hair dryer for 5 seconds.
Has anyone else tried warming their tools for stubborn materials, or is there a better trick for that final sharp crease?

Careful with open flame though, that's a fire risk.

Oh man, that's a game changer for sure. I had the same fight with some thick leather and my regular folder just would NOT give me a clean line. Warming it up over a candle for like two seconds made it glide through and set the crease perfectly. You just have to be super careful not to overheat it and damage the material. That slight warmth really does make all the difference on stubborn stuff.
