Thanks Jimbbo! I'd put skulls or flames either one if my customers would have it!

Thanks,

All of your work is amazing and top notch! Just one question, Is your natural looking color to all of your work with plain neatsfoot oil or neutral antique paste? I am new to leather working and do not know anybody who does it, I have been trying to get that natural look to my tooled work but just can't get the details to stand out. Any answer would be greatly appreciated.

When I oil I use EVOO and I use Fiebings antique paste. Seal the leather with Neatlac (Clear Lac) first, apply the antique, seal with NeatLac again.

Hope this helps......

Thanks Beans! On occasion I will spray NeatLac, but 99% of the time I apply it with a trimmed piece of wool skin. I like to work it in a little which reduces some of the gloss.
