Minwax?
hiloboy replied to hiloboy's topic in Dyes, Antiques, Stains, Glues, Waxes, Finishes and Conditioners.
TwinOaks, your right i think freight by ship is the only way to get it here but most of the places i have talk to don't seem to know how to do that.. they say you have to buy it by the pallet or the cost would be to great for a small amount .and i don't need that much..they get there products by ship.. still looking for a way to get it here... particle, thanks for the link.. i'm going to try that minwax until i can find a way to get the leather dies here what type of finish did you use over the minwax? and do you need to thin the minwax to make it penetrate the leather if so what do you use for a thinner? mahalo again for every ones help.. -

if you got a F150 and get a recall from ford that it my just start on fire. GET IT CHECKED OUT RIGHT AWAY!!! this last thur. i parked my truck in the parking lot. got ready to go into the store. got half way there for some reason i turned around looked back at my truck and it was on fire. and in only took a couple min. and it burned to the ground.and i lost every thing. body shop said 20.000 and counting to fix. i have it insured so thank God for that. i really thank God it wasn't parked in my garage or my house would have went up to.. they think something under my dash shorted out..so if you have a ford truck take it back and get it checked out.. after looking on the net(never thinking to look before)there a lots of fire that start for no reason..i hope this may help some one else before it happens to them..

i'm going to have to go with ClayB on this.. i have not found a uses for that many blades in the type of work i do. like he said sometimes a 4 blades are is to much.. not saying it wouldn't work and look cool..but i don't think i would use something that big .just because of the size of most of the stuff i work on..i have one that i made out of a exacto knife handle that will hold maybe 6 or 8 blades and it only takes up space just to big..
