Members Jimbob Posted July 19, 2012 Members Report Posted July 19, 2012 Cool, I like the bold carving and the matching bold braiding!! Nice job!! Jimbob Quote
Members benlilly1 Posted July 19, 2012 Author Members Report Posted July 19, 2012 Thanks guys... I used 1/4" lacing with 1/4' slots made by a sharpened stainless steel screw driver. I praciticed making holes with a round hole punch and I didn't like the look . I really like using the 1/4" lace. It looks beefy. AND THE LACING GOES FASTER! Quote
Members Togn Posted July 20, 2012 Members Report Posted July 20, 2012 Very very nice! great job! what type of finish do you used on this please? Quote
Members benlilly1 Posted July 20, 2012 Author Members Report Posted July 20, 2012 Thanks...I used Fiebings Tan oil dye all over, antiqued it in the crest and leather balm to finish it off . Very very nice! great job! what type of finish do you used on this please? Quote

Members Togn Posted July 28, 2012 Members Report Posted July 28, 2012 (edited) Thanks...I used Fiebings Tan oil dye all over, antiqued it in the crest and leather balm to finish it off . Thanks Benlilly for the response. I have a doubt,: is this finish water resistant? Edited July 28, 2012 by Togn Quote
Members benlilly1 Posted July 28, 2012 Author Members Report Posted July 28, 2012 Togn, I don't think you can ever completely water resist leather. Just keeping a leather balm applied will help though. Quote
