Weight of leather will have some effect , 6/7 oz I lose right at 5/8 inch per foot . Best way to know is cut a sample @ known length ( say 9 inches )and braid it then measure to see what you are loosing . Overall length will be shorter by X amount , now just do the math for the you want .

This is for a great young lady who is a nurse and actually understands what that encompasses . She took care of my brother back in Dec. , during which time I found out she hunts and is planning her first elk hunt for this fall . I thought this would make a little Thank You for the care she gives each and every day !!

I just take my mop&glow to my leather shop and have the guy keep it in the back for me . He will pour it into smaller bottles and add a buck an ounce when I come in for supplies , just makes me feel better about the whole thing .........................

Veg-Tan bellies: what to do with them.
Gezzer replied to DieselTech's topic in Leatherwork Conversation
All of the above ............. I used them for practice quite a lot and made some coasters out of them . Most I have found were not to soft for coasters but they will stiffen up with Glycerine saddle soap and slicker to the flesh side . -
My guess and it's just a guess , was to keep the horses and wagon from falling off when there is ice on the ground .

Is there a better way to end your hand stitching?
Gezzer replied to DeWayne Hayes's topic in Sewing Leather
My 2 cents If you have contacted it all , maybe just a touch of white glue on the thread just as you pull them in .I think fiction and the white glue would hold BUUUUUUUUUUUT I don't know this . Or like Toxo said , something like a bowstring serving finish . -
