roger got a quick question.when you lay down the neoprene as the base,do you take the polymer insert cut out the middle and laid it in?and what kind of blue foam do you lay over that.is that like 1/8 thick or so..i got a few customers askin about polymer inserts and havent tried by hand at them yet..how much do the polymer inserts go for?where do you get them.what do you charge for all the foam work is that include in your price..thanks Dan

that came out real cool.love the color..

wow you werent kidding.that is a deep backbone..cool lookin bike,and a badass seat to go with it now.nice job roger...

very cool write up roger.my question is how much do you over lap the top over the sides.and do you use 2-3 oz for the sides?

thanks for the quick replys and advice guys.

my buddys wife was given and old tooled chair that has been in storage and has dried and started to crack,i havent seen any pics or even seen the chair in person yet.could oiling it and help with dryness and the cracking.or is the whole chair shot due to the fact it is old and dried out.im gonna redo the chair top for her eventually.but didnt know if there was any way of saving it.didnt know if anybody had some tips or info on what to do.thanks

i had only been doing leather work a few yrs.not long at all.but my two cents are,i take leather on the flesh side run warm water until its good and wet.stick in the fridge over nite in a plastic bag.and the next day when im gonna tool.let it return it to color and go ahead and tool.i was taught the warm water would pentatrate good.dont know if it does any better than cold water.works for me,happy usually way it comes out.

nice work grumpy.still think xians wallet came out badass.
