Wow. Totally unique methods ("who'd a thunk it" type of response) and what an incredible result. Sounds like the DVD is worth it!

Finally got around to getting the video and watched it this evening and must say that is really interesting and worth the money. I must say it opened up many new avenues to leather working.

I assume this is the only video but if there are any more available does anyone know? Thanks.

I don't know what happen, but back when this thread started, I was never able to get the link to work. I read all of the responses on here and it sounds like the man is awesome. I was glad to help him in his time of need.

I heard from Billy's daughter today and Billy finally made it to London!! :)

She asked me where she can get some leather in the UK for her son and dad to play with. HELP! UKRay, Badger- someone- tell me where to send her, please! I don't think Billy is going to tool, but who knows what he might teach her boy? I think I'll send the kid a real rawhide mallet- or we'll be hearing that metal hammer clanging clear over here!

I'm happy he's back with his family and that he can pass his expertise down the line.

Johanna, you should revive this thread every 3 - 6 months. I'm sure the newer folks would be interested. I know I was right away.

I can't wait to get started.

Thanks

Does Billy's technique for coloring leather work on veg tan that you can case and shape after coloring?

Thanks

Short answer- yes. Look here for some of his ideas:

This was written before he started playing with Picture This.

Billy and Mary are 2 amazing people. It's hard to believe her paintings look so much like real pictures. They were both given a gift of talent that most of us can only dream about.

Wishing you and your family the best.
