Hope that mix works good for you it looks great here.

Sorry my friend just mixed it to be sure it's around ten parts yellow to 4 parts green 1/2 drop black this mix gives a nice avocado green wow nice color.

I think start with yellow about 4 parts then green about1.5 parts the one drop of black. Hope that helps .

Nice job on that love that texture looks great.

I use acid brushes for contact cement or the latex they work fine, for hot hide glue I use an artist brush with a wood handle and more bristles .

that's beautiful LOL LOL LOL

It's not so much what it means, it's what it says about the fabricator .

LOL thanks for that !

Curves that are not tangent to the rad make me nut's but that's just me .

I use poster paper same as your card stock I would guess I put the ruler on it use a knife against the edge of the ruler cut about half way through fold it divide by half the with of what I'm making cut that off then draw the curve cut that off lay it on the paper draw the outline and done maybe 1 min and it's perfect . For the cutting I use a head knife and depending on how sharp a turn I may use a pattern head knife they make the cutting very fast and accurate .

My son is a cad computer guy he also uses a computer for curves buy the time he makes the curve adjustments and all that crap I have already cut the leather LOL

Looks really nice very good execution.

and yes fold the paper in half to make both sides even

the way to make a curve keep your wrist on the table forget the French curve stuff keep the wrist and forearm on the table using only your wrist to make the line this is the best way to make a curve practice it and you'll see .

I like my Singer shoe patcher for that kind of stuff it can sew in circles without turning the hat.

looks very nice great job!

Nice and best of luck with that it really looks professional I could see that logo and name becoming known world wide it just looks like that to me good luck .

Good job looks like you did it, and did it well. Nice job Frodo

Nice job French Mich that carving looks great !

Glad I could be of help like to see it when it's done and yes a bit of wet forming will do it you should have enough room for a 1.5" belt good luck with it Frodo.

Yes I've done that with my cobra 4 a few times work's great .

looking at the pic I would say take the screws out and put the left screw over near the right screw and the right screw near the welt line .
