And in basic, this is what I do. 1. cut/sand edge, bevel, crease. 2. Paint edge. 3. Heat paint with heated creaser (electric or manual) or with friction (canvas) 4. sand edge with 400 grit, until perfectly flat. 5. Paint edge 6. Sand with 400 grit, until perfectly flat. 7. Proceed painting and sanding until you have a perfect edge. 8. Finish with 800 grit (or higher if you like) 9. Melt Paraffin (or beeswax) onto the edge. (Use electric creaser or heated creaser if you have.) 10. Burnish the edge with canvas. 11. Finished. You see examples of my edges if you look through my posts (For example the dark brown wallet) thank you for the tip. I think my problem is the paint itself.

Questions regarding some of these topics come up on a fairly regular basis, so I thought I would put something together that members could easily refer to. This article describes the way I finish edges and Johanna has posted it in the "Tips & Tricks" section on the main page. I hope that some of you will find it helpful.

Members JShapiro Posted December 31, 2019 Members Report Posted December 31, 2019 The link does not work for me. Neither do a number of the other pinned tutorials at the top of the front page of this forum. I sent a message to the admin a few days ago informing them of this.
Moderator Wizcrafts Posted January 14, 2020 Moderator Report Posted January 14, 2020 Links to old files in 10 year old posts don't work anymore due to changes in the forum software during the last few years.
