Hi Blue62

Nice job.  How did you get the neatsfoot oil so even?  I just did a belt with edge stamping instead of a stamped center and clear edge.  The stamps held a lot more oil than the clear areas.  In my case it won't matter because I'm putting on a coat of Skidmore's or two next.

Thanks

Mike

Light coats, keep the oil warm, and one of the bigger things, if your leather is on the softer side it will take oil faster, any kind of stamping will also take oil quicker, so light coats and set someplace warm to let the oil even out.

Hi, Thanks, the leather I had a bit of trouble was cased, and was hard to begin with.  I was a bit surprised that it didn't take too well, but it looks decent now.

Later
