  1. Usually there's still enough moisture to mold without wetting again. If not just use enough around the edge to make it form. If you're worried about water stains apply it on the bottom of the leather.
  2. Yup, I think a few that had accepted the challenge have dropped the ball! I guess there's July...
  3. As far as I know everyone tools on the leather flat and molds after. I mold after tooling and I form it over the shaped seat foam. It makes for a perfect fit! Good Luck
  4. Love it...your stamping/tooling and stitching look great on that belt!!
  5. Very nice! And thanks for the explanation on the reverse cant... I especially like the belt.
  6. Thanks, just wanted to know if I had my settings to tight...It's asking me if I want to override...do you think that's a good idea??
  7. Has anyone else been having trouble using the website for Wicket and Craig? Here is what comes up on my computer: This web page at www.wickett-craig.com has been reported as an attack page and has been blocked based on your security preferences. Curious if I should override and go ahead and use the site?
  8. I see the wooden mold but how are you getting the foam shaped exactly to accept the leather? I would think it would be hard...unless this is applied directly to the pan. Nice job though!
  9. Impressive work!
  10. I tried Tandy's easy carve and didn't like it...
  11. If you really want to have control of the color an airbrush is an excellent choice. I've had the same problems with applying dye the conventional way. Having an airbrush is a plus!
  12. Find a local Chiropractor. Their x-rays are 14x17. I get mine from their trash... Or maybe a damp dry towel laid on the area will help.
  13. Well, I've already backed out of doing the holster... the main reason is I don't know enough. This isn't my cup of tea anyway. You have a nice informative website dickf. You do some fine work!
  14. The finished product looks good...The logos look great! I could tell it was hard to cut out the pieces. And LOTS of studs.
  15. Great find...enjoy!
  16. Looks great! I was wondering when you were going to post anything!
  17. It's the dye particle's left from the evaporation of the solvent. You're supposed to be able to buff it away with sheep's skin...not sure how briskly. I wonder if diluting the dye before will help? Just a thought.
