  2. equal parts rubbing alcohol and glycerin in a jar. for a week
  3. YES, It is like a piece of suede I talked to another guy that laid his skin on a board and salt cured it, he says his is hard and not workable I guess it is the glycerin that made it soft
  4. I use pinking shears to cut canvas / stuff that frays then fold the fabric over and sew a hem , this way you do not have a jagged edge
  5. My state is the only sate left that will tell you to KISS MY ASS we are NOT getting rid of the REBEL FLAG It was voted on by the People Of Mississippi.

  11. all jokes aside An AC filter with a merv 13 rating or a fpr 10 rating can be use inside your COOL mask Here is what the filter looks like in a mask the plastic squares help mold it as you wish
  12. Put it on a scale. is it 2 pounds or not? If it is 2 pounds then you received exactly what was advertised If it is not 2 pounds call Springfield and tell them they fudged up let me introduce you to some of that blemished leather Looks pretty good once stained...

  14. Competition shooters are kinda freaky people. LOL They want what they want because some guy used it and got the best time so by GAWD that is the reason and do not tell me any different because I shoot 3 gun and you dont know nothin LOL Yeah,, I have had this discussion before. I agree that 2 pieces of veg tan are all you need Buffalo is better than cow. IMO. But if you want something in the belt to stiffen it use a 1/2'' wide zip tie or pallet strap. A metal pallet strap works also. here is a belt i made with 3 pcs of 8 oz <<Notice it is sitting on the floor in a circle, This belt is STIFF with no added stiffener
  15. No dip dye, first the black then the mahogany. I used a sponge in a circular motion. 4 or five coats. do not load up the sponge. you will have dark spots where you started in the above picture. the black is actually to dark. i should have used less dye
  16. I enjoyed your video.. if you are not going to talk then add some Jazz or Blues. I am one of the persons that would be learning from it. I do have a suggestion.. Please redo this video, and use only the tools a person who is learning would have. a knife, straight edge, and a wood burnishing tool Thank you. Looking forward to future Videos

    The top piece I figured the diameter of the horizontal piece [7''] and made the top piece 1'' [8''] . for the fold and sewing only thing I did not consider is the stretching of the leather. I think i will try leaving the extra 1/2 of the 1'' off to compensate for the stretch?
  19. I am using 70% rubbing alcohol and glycerine mixed at 50/50 This only works for reptile, can not be used on a rabbit or deer hide seal it up and let it sit a week. give a shake every day
  20. A Timber Rattlesnake made the mistake of crossing my path Here he is in a tanning solution. He will be ready to remove next monday or tuesday 4/12 or 4/13 Not sure if he will be a wallet or check book cover.
