Hi,
New here and to leather work. I have a question about veg tan split leather. I'm particularly interested in leather wet forming - masks, containers, armour and rivet work.
For experimentation and to get some experience, could I make use of the cheaper spilt leather ?. I assume the surface finish wont be as good, but will it wet form and stamp similar to a full skin leather of similar thickness ?
I see I can get some decent size pieces of split from ebay (uk) around 1 - 2mm thick which I assume would wet form ok ?
Thanks.
