grywolf Report post Posted November 10, 2013 I am working with 4/5 oz leather to make a book cover and this batch of leather is the same weight that I have used in the past but it is much more stiff, I mean it is almost like a piece of cardboard. I am rather new at working with leather and my funds are rather limited. 1. How do I soften the leather up and make it more pliable and soft. 2. Should I do before I tool the leather? Thank you in advance for the advice and help. God Bless Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
