TACKOTE
paloma replied to Ken Nelson's topic in Dyes, Antiques, Stains, Glues, Waxes, Finishes and Conditioners.
it's a product old as the world, it's tragacanth gum. I use it for my leather works ( very often ) and in my kitchen works ( when the recipe ask it) and my wife use it for his hair..... -
Maybe possible to make it like a sandwich? this needle point brodery between two leather stripes and stitched all together?....with a window on the stipe of above to let the work appear. without pict it's difficult to speak.

Yes you can,( famous sentence...) but the two faces must be very clean, defatted , and with a first choice of leather glue. If you cant sew it maybe you can riveted it.

Carnauba Cream To Waterproof My Expensive Boots
paloma replied to Dozen's topic in All About Leather
I meant to say; neastfoot oil. ( sorry i have some problem to find the right word in English) -
It makes sense. It's their business. in my case i make my balm with very simple and basic products; neastfoot oil,beeswax,carnuba and some tears of the clove tree oil ( to avoid bacteria and mushrooms) for the quantity of each it's : one spoon- five spoons-hal spoon-5 drops.prepare in a not too much hotI water bath.

Carnauba Cream To Waterproof My Expensive Boots
paloma replied to Dozen's topic in All About Leather
You're right, I did it wrong. the product you are talking about is maybe very very good there is not the question,i just want to said that, with a very good marketing work it's possible to do anything. I use very basic products on my leathers, bees wax and beef foot oil ,this for every days traitements. For finishing a work i love to use carnuba wax it's shine and it's protect it's a very very old product too. I don't want to be unpleasant, it's just that I'm pretty whole in the way I express myself. And whenif I need to have an anti-fungicide and anti-bacterial action i use this.... Never forget,it's the customer who paid for nice boxes and marketing/advertising... -
the thing interessant with this object is that you only need just one face,it's symmetrical !
-
it would have been a pleasure bikermutt, but as it's different each time and for this simple design i dont use pattern i just cut a litle bit larger ( 0,80 in / 2 cm) and that's all.
-
if it can help someone, my procedure is,i dye the edges,and if it's a vegetable natural tan leather,after dyeing i put gum adragant and i burnish and i finish with a personal preparation of bees-wax mixed with carnuba wax and i polish.
-
yes ,but not by the owner,because,it must remove the seams,and after changing the tape,stitch again.With my new process.( unless the owner knows how to do it.) With the old process it was possible but, i stopped it because the two parts of leather with time shrinks,and estetically it's not good. in both cases the two parts of the case are separable.the screws are accessible I hope to be understandable enough...
-
it is. it's not goatskin but cowhide leather in 2mm ( 0,08 in ) the leather is wet-molded and hand- stitch when dryed. thanks.
-
