    If I may suggest, rather than a straight line put some curve to it for more 'flow'. Also practice 'fading' it in and out, if that makes sense.

    Organization is HIGHLY overrated!

    Very nice! Oak leaves are one of my favorite subjects to carve.

    Exactly. I've used many contact adsives in 45 years of building, but never heard of this one. Can't use something if you don't know it exists.

    I use a dauber most of the time. Up and down once, back and forth once. And finally spiraling out from the center. The looks will even out with bit of buffing to remove excess pigment and a light oiling.

    There are older sets listed on bay. I have found a few that were reasonably priced.

    Looking good!

    I would antique after molding. I suspect what you are getting is something similar to the discolored rings on a table from coffee cups.
  10. tsunkasapa
    That was my first take, from a lathe.

    I like the effect on the flower. I've seen wood carving on chair backs that had the same look. Reversed kind of like looking at a photo negative.

    Both of them look just fine. The bear track came exceptionally nice.

    I agree with Chuck. I had a BK blade and found it to be no better than any of my others.

    Congrats! And I AM going to Pendleton this weekend, and will stop by.

    Nice! I thought it looks more like birch bark.

    I use a dead blow for some larger stamps if there are too few to drag out the arbor press.

    That's what it has always looked like for me, minus the ads acrost the top. Ad blocker removes those.

    None that I'm aware of.

    Very nice! Glad I could be of assistance.

    You might try wetting the leather before you stitch it. You might get enough stretch to close the gap.

    After your final seal it will do you little good to try and oil it in the future. You have 'sealed' the oil out.

    Not sure where this myth got started, but veg tanned is not necessarily the stronger leather. As stated above, latigo or alum would be a much better choice.

    My neighbor has a Ferdinand Bull for sale. I have neither room nor use for it. He is asking $3500 for it. It WILL NOT be shipped. It is in central Washington state. If interested I can get pictures of the actual unit, but it looks just like what I see online, and it is in good shape.
