I saw that. Thanks. Wild Harry has a new follower too.
You do production runs/work right? Do you sell via your own channels only or do you do wholesale? Or a mix?

Sorry for OT guys, just got interested as he/they(?) do nice stuff.

Thank you back. We sell a little on line but 95% is crocodile manufacturing for a few brands and most of the crocodile farms in Australia for their tourist markets. We may try a little crocodile product for our own web site maybe later this year. A lot of the product on our site is the leather versions of what we make for those clients. Good practice stuff at the start of the runs sort of.;)

I just got some edge paint from Giardini (Italy). Until now I have used Fiebings Egde coat, but I never seemed to get any good results with it. Here's my first items using the Semi Dense tan color. Two coats, each of them sanded. Then a coat of protecting gloss. All is sealed together with a final coat of buffed beeswax.

The edge feels a lot smoother than anything I have achieved before, but I still feel there's a way to go to get it even and without bubbles/cracks.

Interested in hearing other tips about egde finishing. I do like a burnished egde, but the painted does look appealing to me as well. Happy to hear your inputs!

Everyone seems to be sanding between coats. I have never had an issue with the dense paint one bit. Been using it for over a year. I only sand the leather level before my first coat, but not between coats.
