    Nice! I must be getting all nerdy because I'm as impressed with how well the weave stamp is lined up as I am with the reflectors (?).

    From my very first project to my latest. I might as well show the progression from beginner to whatever.

    Thanks WScott!
  5. Thanks, Johanna! I would've noticed sooner but I have an innate ability to not see things that are right in front of my face!
  6. Fantastic - I now have proper edges! Thanks Bob!!

    Great, thanks Cyber! And Mike - my girlfriend isn't a French model, she's a Swedish model. Yeah, Swedish - that's it...

    Saddle Soap

    Oh, it wasn't here, Cheryl. Just on the most reliable source ever - the internet! Some talk of the ph level of it and how it degrades fibres - especially when used to try and restore and clean old leather. And you reminded me of another question - edges seem to be a tricky thing and so far I've just been sanding, wetting, buffing, waxing, then buffing again my edges (all by hand). At what step would you apply saddle soap? and what function does that serve? And thanks!!
  9. Hey all, I have a tin of Feibing's Saddle Soap (can't remember why I bought it but probably because buying stuff is half the fun for a newbie). Anyway, I have read alot of articles on how saddle soap has a tendency to harm leather. My question is, when and why would I use saddle soap? Is it only harmful to already sealed leather or veg tanned leather? Should I just throw it out? Thanks, Wink
  10. In case the PM got missed, I respectfully request access to the adult section. Thanks Mistr...wait, sorry - I got carried away!

    Biker Wallet back

    Hey wt, I just used Tandy's Bordeaux professional waterstain and this would be before I finished it with Super shene I don't have a pic here but I made a wallet and used the Bordeaux mixed with quite a bit of black and it came out really cool!
