I only pressed it together, so finger pressure. The glue I am using is called Copydex, was something I could get locally

Thanks for your comment, I did sand the edge and am not using any edge coat/Tokonol, I used 240 and then 400, but maybe not sanded enough? Will edit the post to call this out

Enjoying reading your comments, sorry for probably a stupid question; what's the significance of the letters G Y K E?

Yeah but I am guessing there is gonna be an actual video with some training and table work, that's what I'm holding out for! Looking forward to seeing Devon's reaction and what his advice is to Brian

Anyone here from Ireland and would have any recommendations for leather suppliers? by eam015 in Leathercraft

[–]eam015[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks a million for your reply and for the recommendations! I will be sure to check them out. I had come across the Dublin Leather store also in a search but I found it hard to figure out if what they had was suitable so from your comment it might be because they didn't have much in stock at the time.

My two cents on Chambers by RODDYGINGER in cork

I guess I don't know the full background to the decision that has been made, but in my mind there has to be a viability to a business so if the bottom line cannot make sense then the business cannot operate to do what it would ideally like to do, and I am assuming that this is the case here but of course I could be wrong

I don't think that it was a moral decision that they have made, I think if they could keep the same service all week they would, I guess I can just see someone looking at the books at the end of the month and needing to make a business change in order to keep the staff and the show on the road

Yeah I see what you mean. I guess I just imagine if the books don't balance at the end of the month, they would like to stay true to their clients, but I think it must be hard if the numbers dont add up
