keplerts Report post Posted June 5, 2014 Hey, You did a great job! Really like the lining inlay. Stitching looks great and does the finish. What brand and wt of leather did you use? What is the finish. Hand or machine stitched? Keep up the good work! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

oscar621 Report post Posted June 5, 2014 Thanks. It's a piece of 5/6 oz ALC (Triple C?) veg tan and it's lined with a random piece of bag side from a bundle I got from SLC. Mostly machine sewed and then laced (that was a new one for me). Then I just rubbed on a beeswax/oil combo and buffed. I thought about an acrylic finish over that but think I might just leave it alone. Thoughts? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rosiart Report post Posted June 5, 2014 Very nice. I was wondering about the size of it, it's a bit hard to tell from the pictures. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
keplerts Report post Posted June 5, 2014 It looks nice the way it is. But, a light coat of Bag Kote would really bring out a warm shine and give it some light protection. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oscar621 Report post Posted June 11, 2014 I added the bag kote as suggested - thanks. As for size, it is 4"x12" at the bottom and about 10" high in the middle. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
