    Thanks Bob, yes larger pieces of leather. Just like you've suggested, I finally found a few threads here on the subject. Also a smooth piece of walnut is suggested. I agree it's not going to be easy to keep it consistent. A plate's a good idea.

    Hunio, What type of leather are you using? All your leather looks great. Is it veg-tan or not? Thanks

    Hi Lavendara, You could start off with a few stamps and get a swivel knife and at least a couple bevelers. You'll use them a lot! I use my B701 most of the time. You can make lots of designs with a few veiners too. Good Luck!

    What are the best methods of burnishing a flat piece of leather? Moisture content? What to burnish with? To get that worn look.

    Raised letter with raised corners and carved design. It's in a shadowbox type frame so you'll see dimension. Now it's dye time...what to use? Any suggestions? I cringe when I think of colors so it might get earth tones. Just not sure because when it's dyed, it's final!!

    Most conditioners/waxes won't last forever. There are several out on the market that will work. I use Leather Balm. It's easy to use and shines up well. Recently I've used pure lanolin for testing some techniques. It sure repels well. For ease of use Leather Balm is my choice.

    Hey, if it works and you finished it, that's half the battle. You'll get better the more you make.
