Luke...excellent work my man....tell me about that pre-dyed W&C...do you handle it the same way you do the un-pre-dyed leather? Just case it, stamp, and sew?

Actually, with the limited stamping I do, I find I can just wet the W&C to a certain point, then stamp. I don't actually case it, since I'm able to finish my small projects in one sitting.

Can this pre-dyed be worked the same way??

Again....you do great work...I endeavour to reach such a quality level.

Rayban the W&C is a God send..just use it like you would any Veg tan leather,

apply a light coat fo Neetsfoot oil and apply the final finish.

Hi Luke,

I just ordered some brown edge kote. i'm also heading to the art store tomorrow to pick up a few colors of heavy acrylic. Edge kote comes in only black in brown. Is there something one can do to alter the shade? I'm also want to take Art's advice and look into some shoe polish. If I remember correctly, the polish that comes in the little round glass jars does look a lot like edge kote.

Thanks for the pics of the WC chestnut. Good looking stuff.
