Ambassador leatheroo Posted January 10, 2008 Ambassador Report Posted January 10, 2008 I thought i would do some carving for a change. i spent hours cutting and carving and stamping and i was really pleased with the result. i made a playing card folder for my son. i had shaped it into the shape of a deck of cards and i couldn't wait to dye it. As it was wet molded it need to dry, so to hurry it along i decided to dry it in my convection oven(combination oven and microwave). I have done this many times with my masks and have the oven at the lowest setting. i set the oven for 10 minutes. STUPID ME...in my haste i put the oven on microwave instead of oven, the result was a rock hard shrivelled up piece of leather that went straight in the bin. Quote "]http://leatheroo.blogspot
Members cybertracy Posted January 10, 2008 Members Report Posted January 10, 2008 Oh, i'm so sorry about all that work wasted! But thanks for posting as it could stop many new crafters from making the same mistake. My boyfriend did this with his first carved work, oven and low setting but he left it in too long. Thank goodness it was just a "tester" and we could laugh about the jerky he produced.' Quote [color="#FF8C00"][size="4"][font="Tahoma"][size="5"][i]wag[/i] more,[/size][size="3"] bark less . . .
