Thanks Chuck , I think I've about got the boxes figured out .
-
I surrender !!!! I have fought the good fight with dyes trying to get colors and blending to look decent . I have moved on to thinned acrylic paint and hope with time and practice I'll get the look I see in my head .
-
Out of the box thinking NICE !!!!!!!!

Looks good Bert How did you do the color ?
-
Tipping my hat to you Sir !!!!!!!!!!!

Might make them like a guitar strap ? I made this and it is somewhat adjustable , more slots spaced closer would offer more adjustment . Just a thought .......
-
WOW !! Very nice

I cut the cross out of 1/2 inch A/B (smooth ) plywood , then 5/8 strips out of the leather and use contact cement on the wood edges and the strips . Apply and trim flush front and back , next same with face and trim , bevel edge and burnish , apply finish . ps: I tool the face before gluing it on Thank you Sir !
-
Thank you ! Thanks again .

Did this for a local fundraiser . First time covering something wooden
-
I think it might could be done and not be seen but can't tell from that one picture ...... maybe something like this
-
Second thought , sew a strip of firm leather on the bottom side to hold the edge out where you want it to stay ( stiffener kind of )
-
If it is veg tan .......... maybe very warm water ? I guess you would need to lightly dampen the entire side to avoid any water spots , just go heavy on the edges with the warm water . Good luck and let us know the fix you come up with !
