Re: Leather Hardening
Poster: Kai Scheppe <scheppe@hpl.umces.edu>
Greetings, just to throw something into the debate without having read all
the posts:
Have you looked at this URL? It was written by Duke Cariadoc and may lay
some of your arguments to rest.

Also, I have heard that boiling leather in water for 10 min and then
forming it makes great Cuir-bouilli. Just think of very old bicycle seats
- bone hard. To protect the leather you can brush some wax on.
Anyway, I haven't made any, but I've been witness to at least two
fulfledged discussions like you are having.
For more information ask at the The Armory mailing list. To subscribe send

I think you will get more input there than you can handle :-)
