Here is the notebook I posted pictures of a couple of weeks ago. I finished it with several coats of neatsfoot oil, Sheridan RTC Resist (one coat), and Sheridan Brown Antique paste (one application).

Comments and critiques always welcome.

The first pic is of the entire notebook, and the second is of the lacing detail.

Thanks,

Marlon

You did a great job on the tooling, but that lacing is WWWOOOWWW.

Where did you come up with the instructions for the lacing? That looks really neat with the offsetting colors.

Marlon,

Very, very well done. I love the color and the fact that you went with the angled slit and not holes..... very impressive. The bi-color lacing is well done also of course. I'm very impressed with your tooling. You have quite a command of your tools.

Super....

The dimensions are 13" x 9" and I did draw the pattern. I used Chan Geer's pattern drawing instructions to get the ideas.

The lace is 3/32" wide and I used an 8 stitch per inch wheel spacer and punched each slit with a lacing nipper.

Wow! 8 stitch per inch lacing. Bet that took you a couple minutes to finish.

Good job, Marlon! I really like the way you do your initials.
