Members Rawhide Posted January 10, 2008 Members Report Posted January 10, 2008 Wolvenstien suggested I post a picture of some of my work, so I will. This is a checkbook cover I made about a week or so ago. It's posted also in a How do I do that thread also, as I was trying to illustrate how I lace. Marlon Quote Marlon

Members Rawhide Posted January 10, 2008 Author Members Report Posted January 10, 2008 Thanks guys, That definitely means a lot coming from some pros like you. I used Antique stain - Medium Brown, but I put about 3 coats on, because it just didn't look even. Then I used Lexol conditioner, then two coats of leather balm with atom wax, rubbing really briskly (like burnishing except with a clean t-shirt type cloth) between coats and after the second coat.
