Finishing Edges with Hot Beeswax

Recommended Posts

Thanks, BrownDog. That method is pretty much what I imagined would work well. I have a small double boiler around here somewhere. I still haven't had the chance to try it, but maybe this weekend. I also imagine the beeswax sort of filling in, building up a bit, and smoothing over any less-than-perfect edges - such as small/minor gaps between layers of leather, that may still be visible even after a good amount of sanding. Do you find this to be the case? I've only been doing leatherwork on a hobby/part-time basis for about 5 months and haven't yet been able to achieve the beautiful, near perfect edges I've seen some more experienced people do.
