    DON and REGIS, summed it up very good, only thing i can add is TO THINK TWICE, POUND ONCE.... make sure your surface has no bounce to it.... I am sure you are useing a piece of Marble. If it is not real thick, make sure you do have a very heavy or thick work surface.

    Regis.... when that happens. You were on the right track by useing an eraser. Next time that happens , get yourself one of those SANDING BELT cleaners, cut yourself about a 1/2''piece after the glue dryes, just erase it. When i have tried to use the cleaner or deglazer it just diluted the glue and all i was doing was just rubbing th glue in. good luck on the next one.

    WOLVERNSTIEN..... use your buffing wheel with the fine grit(jewlers rouge) buff untill the tools shine. Use them, if the design is pitted, sell on e bay. i bet you will not see any bad marks on the leather.
