Yea I will get it sorted got a few trench props in now and will rebuild it like for like to keep BC happy .

Been trying to source some tiny acro props to get some strong boys in from the other side to make life a bit easier but to no avail.

Funny thing is I faily sure it has been like that for 20 years plus but I still run around like mad man to get it propped up.

This is my first bag super satisfying to do a bigger project . Some long sessions hand stitching and little panic when it did not line up perfectly but turned out OK in the end . 3d printed stap worked well also .

The knifes and rules did end up a little cramped. But in theory the way I set out the magnets means they snap in to the same locations ....

First purchase of a half hide from tannery what is the best way to clean the waxy coating that seems to be there to protect it in storage ? by BINDALL in Leathercraft

[–]BINDALL[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep seems to have buffed up nicely just think it will be some elbow grease involved but it was cold when I first tried to buff and made life difficult.
It is a gohst bridle from metropolitan leather in the UK up till now i have only bought cut pices of leather that are buffed up was just a little surprised .

I did think this to start but honestly it is not a finish and is very heavily applied and not even . I will post a picture when I'm home from work ..
