  1. Hi, I’m very new to the leathercraft hobby and am looking to make watch straps for myself. Could anyone point me in the direction of anyone selling watch strap templates, some of the straps I wish to make have concave arcs so it’s a little more difficult than two parallel cuts. I appreciate any help anyone can offer.
  2. Ray, Thank you. I only gave it the one day, impatient I'm afraid. I will try again and apply Neatsfoot, it is the oil I have and go back to it as you say a couple to 3 days later. Thanks for the response
  3. Hi, I am new to this leatherworking so I apologise if this is a silly question. I have looked to see if something similar has been posted. I am trying to make leather watch straps, out of 3mm veg tan. I have cut all the relevant pieces, skived them and dry fitted them. I have then dyed them using fiebing's oxblood. Once dry the leather was extremely brittle, it actually snapped with a crack. I tried treating with neatsfoot to make it supple again, although the leather did soften slightly it was still a long way from being adequate. Please help
