Gold star hole punch didn't punch holes in my leather

I use denatured alcohol for air brush clean up, and let the a.brush soak in it between coats = no clog

to avoid the rewetting and smearing the dye. I air brush the resolene on

Ill take one

check out Arthur Porter's youtube video's how to make a leather bucket bag

I bought the same punch last month, it was very dull.

I like it. what did you use for a liner?

I have good results spraying several light coats 50/50 water/resolene with airbrush, clean up with denatured alcohol, between coats I let the airbrush soak in a cup of denatured alcohol. no clogging. wish it had a lower sheen.

WOW

buffing between coats removing the surface dye pigments.

Arthur Porter You Tube video's taught me how to make a bag with a fabric liner.

Thank you for your patience. I understand , Maybe you could post a pic of the bottom on your next seat like this Honda.

where do you get the blades? they look like the injecter type blades I use to use for shaving but walgreens, publix don't have them

lookn Good

Thanks for explaining, would Barge contact cement will hold leather to the metal seat pan? Don't need to put in rivets?

Not sure I understand what you are trying to tell me.

I can see now your seat is 2 pieces, side piece wraps under to the bottom, pulled tight and stapled. right? guess would only work with plastic pan

Welcome from the Nashville area

Thanks for sharing, I have only made 4 Bobber seats first three I used the round braid, takes a lot of time. just the braiding took me 12hrs.I bought a industrial machine And learning to use it, on my last seat I wet molded top and bottom, then machined sewed the top and bottom together it' was so quick, 30 minutes to sew. I like machine sewing. They way you sewed your seat using 3 pieces is interesting, I have made a couple bags making the hem on the inside then flip it. Your seat is kinda like that.

does the polish protect the seat from rain

thanks for passing it on

what did you use for the gloss Finish?
