Tension And Beeswax To Leather

Recommended Posts

I was having trouble with a watch strap that I glued a piece of 2 oz split to a top of thin garment leather..

the split is real dry and rough..the knot would not go through from the bottom with 69 bonded nylon and 16 needle on my techsew 2750pro..

anyway I used a little beeswax on the bottom side(needed it anyway to wear it comfortably) let it sit for a while..and it made the tension easy to adjust again

does this make sense to anyone else??

thanks

to be clear..I applied a thin coat of beeswax to the split on the underside of the the strap...
