  1. I like the work. It's simple and elegant. Can u share details on the leather used?
  2. Good work. Also try another form-factors (shapes) - longer, taller etc.
  3. true. my comment was about to give a direction where author can improve his work and there was nothing offensive IMO. You know, there is a logic - if to go the wrong way and say ' I know it better than anyone' then this end in losing customers, who prefer quality works. I'm here to share my experience, and to learn from others, which hope same purposes from others in here. Don't get me wrong, please.
  4. that's good. Are you ok to share photo results?
  5. hi, did you managed to solve the issue? i'm facing this too ((
  6. have you tried 'Conditioner,Rawhide Cream,Vaqu' or 'Conditioner,Aussie' from Springfield leather?
  7. you'd better improve thread lining accuracy, as well as letters' lining. wish you patience and good results over practice
  8. are you talking about veg tan calf?
  9. ^_^ don't think so. At least do not wish you that )
  10. Hi Bob, 1.what is the RPM on the motor that have attached wheels for burnishing? 2. in case where two pieces are glued up flesh-to-flesh sides, what glue gives so even lookup that holds fibers 'forever' and the method of using (hand press, or maybe manually hammering down) sincerely
  11. seems you are practiced well. That's the experience I believe
  12. thanx for the tip. I'll check.
  13. Cyberthrasher Can you advise whether you get A grade of Hermann Oak from SLC or ..?
  14. would you share with us please? ))
  15. have a same dilemma. did you manage to find a solution or else? me personally going to get test piece from SLC veg tan Hermann Oak. but in general I agree, that there are more options to work with a hide rather than of the piece.
  16. Hi, you can try this one - http://springfieldleather.com/37043/Cement%2CContact%2CLatex%2C8oz/ It is described as a specifically made to glue up oiled leather. Let us know how it works.

  18. Copied that. Thanx for the tip.
  19. Hi, what is the reason of mixing Resolene with water??
  20. could you please describe how exactly do you use it? applying steps and etc. pictures are welcome I've tried this stuff, but made a lot of layers - and now I see that rubber goes off the leather, which I assume because of 'layering' how to use it properly?
  21. my practice show that 5/6 and higher oz are better chose for bracelets. some time i use 15mm snaps, but small buckles are always good, if design allows.
  22. you can read some text over the topic - http://leatherworker.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=31788
