Members 9tpi Posted May 23, 2017 Members Report Posted May 23, 2017 Looks great so far! love the leather pull; It's all in the details. Quote
Members YinTx Posted May 24, 2017 Author Members Report Posted May 24, 2017 Thank you, 9tpi. Getting a little further along today.. liner is in, partially stitched.. just the 2 short sides to go and finishing touches... Fighting this leather some, as it will not sand.. so waxy it just ends up sort of burnishing instead. Which makes having flat edges without glue at the seam a bear. I put together a trial piece of leather so I can experiment some with irons, wax, burnishing sticks etc. to see if it is possible to make that last edge cleaner. YinTx Quote
Members YinTx Posted May 25, 2017 Author Members Report Posted May 25, 2017 Worked the top edge some, I was not happy with it before or after. Finished stitching. Ready for delivery! YinTx Quote
Members Dun Posted May 25, 2017 Members Report Posted May 25, 2017 Looks great! I've seen some rough edged stuff burnish itself over a couple years worth of use. Quote
RockyAussie Posted May 25, 2017 Report Posted May 25, 2017 Nice looking set there and should last more than a lifetime I think. Well done Y Quote
