hi everyone i see a lot of questions about edge finishing. the way we finished edges. we started by dying the edge with a water based dye then we sealed it with tallo wraped in a cloth we then burnished it before we polished the edge with glus size. good luck david

hi hope someone can help i have a few orders for wallets i have only ever made them from kits before. can anyone point me in the right direction on what weight of tooling leather to use for the fronts. good luck david

it took lots of black and white patent leather some thread and a lot of swearing to make it beautiful lol. where abouts in scotland are you going to?

hi everyone signed up to the site a few days ago thought i had better introduce myself. my name is david im origonaly from northern ireland but am now living in scotland. i worked in a saddlery on and off for 20 years made everything from a face plate for an elephant to putting a wolfs paw print on a bike seat. i am trying (very trying my partner says) to start my own business in scotland and am looking at getting in to the tooling side of things. the standard of workmanship on this site has just blown me away i take my hat off to all the artistst on here. good luck david
