    not agree hammering doesn't give a pressure as a press. p.s. these guys also do acrylic templates and stamps - https://am-leathercraft.com/pages/custom-made-stamps
  6. not agree - experience and simple tests shows a great difference between regular (spirit) dye and a pro (oil) dye - both fiebings agree with coverage and evenness of oil dyes - they a very pleasant to work with
  7. 4/5oz is good to go as minimum. JLS's right
  8. you can easily start and keep working with 5$ stamps from SLC I mean, unless you are not grinding steel stamps over the sandpaper, they are good to go.
  9. you can order directly from WC. Maverick leather also has some european bridle and it looks nice and affordable
  10. not sure you can make a few belts (unless it's long enough) - the goal here is to keep center cell pattern I guess that have seen some where on the forum how-to finishing exotic leather, try to use search
  11. Macpherson charges 13+ bucks for the tooling leather.. it's pricee I've read somewhere that in mexico
  12. looks good chromexcel is oily - will the cement/glue keep the lining?
  13. could be leather (overdry) could be the process itself - oiling after or before dying is a general conditioner treatment which prevents cracking and penetrates into leather fibres. Pro OIL dyes from Fiebengs pretty good, but their Regular dyes (alcohol) do make leather go very very dry.
  14. if not mistaken, cobra (or other brand) do provide leasing or credit as an option. It's easier to pay by small payments. Go check them from time to time in the forum under 'sale' thread there are some offerings on splitters.
