    Question Anyone know a company who can print a map onto things like leather, cowhide, canvas?

    Looking for a material that isn't paper-based and would be good for maps. I think leather would be cool. Not sure if canvas would work if you just had the canvas and not the frame it's usually glued onto?

    Something like this maybe...

    Certainly you can get a laser cutter to mark up leather very well. Most of them can take in a bitmap and raster it onto leather. There are loads of places that print to canvas for art prints. You can get them framed or just the rolled canvas in a tube. CanvasChamp is one that I recall.

    Have you checked ArtStation for canvas prints?

    Give Chris Jessee at Cardboard Safari a call: https://cbsafari.com. They print on all kinds of crazy stuff.

    Default Thought about wood-burning?

    When you want to transfer a print onto a piece of wood for carving, you can print onto a sticky transparency, and then carve through it ... it seems like it would work for wood-burning or rotary-tool carving on leather too
