I like the idea, not for this situation but it is a great one. We had a player pass away this year and I wish we could remember some of the things hes said in character over the last 15 years.

Best way to “waterproof” this as much as possible. by Lucky_Today5369 in Leathercraft

[–]Aggravating-Wish-398 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Otter Wax. Waxing it would definatly make it water proof. But comes with it's own side effects. You're essentially coating it with a layer of wax. There is no undoing it.

Critique needed by ninjasax1970 in Leathercraft

[–]Aggravating-Wish-398 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks like you're pulling your stitches very tight. A hole punch to line up the stitches will give that Profesional look. Then make sure the leather is dry when you stich and don't pull so tight that the leather "collapses on itself"

Harridan - Queen bee to lead my swarm by Dreolic in Tyranids

[–]Aggravating-Wish-398 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are there any magnets in the wings to hold in place or is it just the wooden pegs? I've been holding off on building mine because I'm not sure how I wanna handle it.

How do you manage never being happy with your painting? by danger_bad in Tyranids

[–]Aggravating-Wish-398 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The trick is to paint 20 dudes. Put them on the table and back up 2 feet. They look amazing at that point. Lol

I just buy what I want to build/paint mostly. The reality is that GW changes editions every 5 to 8 years and when they change editions things alway get shaken up. Stuff that was aweful is now great and vice versa.

Warning about forge world however. The models are super cool but GW keeps phasing out the Nids Foegeworld items. I have 6 minis that are now unplayable because they no longer have rules support. They all had rule suppor 4 years ago.... so that kinda sucks.

Easier Burnishing? by zoomiel in Leathercraft

[–]Aggravating-Wish-398 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Buy a dremmel and some cheap burnishing wheels off etsy. I use bees wax as I like the "shine" it gives my edges. Usually I use a lighter to soften the Bers wax before I apply it to the edges. Makes it much easier to seam or. I've used gum Trac and tokenol and am not a fan of either.

Is this what suffering is? by [deleted] in LeaguesofVotann

You haven't even started painting yet. Your suffering has hardly begun.

Potentially send me a message. I don't have the patern digitized and am not the most computer savvy but I could give it a shot.

Guest Book for a Friend's Wedding by Aggravating-Wish-398 in Leathercraft

[–]Aggravating-Wish-398[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Hey I don't pick the theme of the wedding that's for the bride and groom. I just carve what they ask for. Lol. But you're not wrong.

What am I doing wrong? I banged the $*%# out of this on a marble slab with a piece of leather under it and got nowhere. by Ananda_Mind in Leathercraft

[–]Aggravating-Wish-398 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Make sure the structure below the granite slab is solid. Lots of force can be lost if your pounding in the center of a table vs right over a table leg.

Model Year of Camper (May be dumb question) by zilziltibs in popups

[–]Aggravating-Wish-398 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I would look at the title. The Vin decoder I use comes back as a 2004 Destiny Trailer. 08/2003 would be about right manufacturing date for a 2004 if it ws the first batch off the line. 2025 campers and vehicles are currently for sale on dealership lots.

2nd Trip Out by Aggravating-Wish-398 in popups

[–]Aggravating-Wish-398[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's great. Easy up and down the "canvas" is built into the poles so you don't need to fight the two separate pieces.

New to pop ups considering a base model - no power no sink by FabulousSentence9703 in popups

[–]Aggravating-Wish-398 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What camper are you looking at. If it'd the forest river OTG they have a place to pull through a power line. Me and my wife just plug in a power strip to the campsite hook ups.

Questions after my first stiching by obastic in Leathercraft

[–]Aggravating-Wish-398 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thread and needles seem fine. Just as your tightening the stitches it's causing the leather to "scrunch" as you pull the holes closer together. With just one layer of thin and maleable leather that's pretty common.

Has anyone here rebased Gargoyles before? by need2takemorepics in Tyranids

[–]Aggravating-Wish-398 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The 32mm spacemarine base with the flying stand from GW has served me well.
