flyingcuda Report post Posted June 28, 2011 this job took me far too long to complete. i discovered that i do not like repetative work! it was very difficult for me to push myself to complete these, i got very bored and discouraged when i had to redo 15 of them...due to either the yellow dye bottle that spilled and reached farther than i thought possible or the ones i had carved numbers into when i had already done so and needed them with no numbers there really need to be a magic eraser for leatherwork that can remove stamping, carving and unwanted dye bottle pranks! regardless, i did complete the job. will i do it again? probably, the customer was very pleased, but i think i will have the leather bug go nibble on my children, would be nice to have extra hands for these larger jobs. thanks for looking. and here is a pic of some of the wrecked...."extra colour" ones Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LNLeather Report post Posted June 30, 2011 EVERY PROBLEM IS AN OPPORTUNITY IN DISGUISE Every time I make a mistake, I use it to learn from - how to do it better next time - don't focus on the mistakes.... I bet it felt real good when you were done and I bet the folks you made those for were Very Happy with what you made for them! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
