  1. No experience here, but ... I would try baking it at a moderate temperature as that would dry it out and harden the rawhide like it does leather. I would also keep tightening it up as the moisture dissipates so the stack stays compressed as it dries. Tom
  2. OP is located in Calgary Alberta. Tom
  3. Too much oil or wax before applying acrylic or lacquer finishes from adhering, especially acrylic. Apply the waxes after applying a finish. Tom

  11. For general information about power mallets, posts found on leatherworker.net see https://www.google.com/search?q=power+mallet+site%3Aleatherworker.net&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8 Tom Edit: There is a Facebook page for support. I see people have been selling or asking to buy. "Power Mallet Leather Carvers"
  12. That's a lot of overkill for tooling leather or setting rivets or snaps! More suitable for a blacksmith shop. Tom
  13. The PDF of the catalog is 69 MB. So a little on the large side to email or post. Tempting to post it here but Tandy may not approve! If Jeff from Tandy wants to provide their approvals, I can post it here. Tom
  14. Iron reacts with tannin in the vegtan leather to produce blue/black stains. Check out vinegaroon for more information on how the stain occurs. The stain can be removed by cleaning with oxalic acid. Have to keep vegtan and iron separated and dry to prevent it. Tom
  15. I'd go back to the seller for support. Talk to @Techsew Ron Tom

  24. Add it to your profile so everyone becomes aware. Else you get offers from the UK or elsewhere! I see from your IP address that you are at Lacombe. So Leighton's is relatively close to you. Tom
  25. I would suggest that people would like to know where in the world they would be buying from and of course have some idea of the related shipping costs and time in transit. Also nice to know what part of eBay your listing will likely turn up on. There is no intended slight to you or anyone else. Just makes good business sense to know where you are dealing. Tom
