Hi Keith,

You said that the first thing you did was put a coat of oil on. What oil was it?

Sorry, I'm really new to this.

Thanks a lot.

@Kurtlane I believe he said he used neetsfoot oil.

You know, I think the tooling would stand out regardless of antiqued or not. Brilliant work!

The goal is to tool deep without loosing the smooth flow... the less antique the better as a rule. Thanks for the comment. KV

Loved the info in this video! Thanks for sharing with us leather lovers who don't know much about what their doing. Leather is so beautiful and useful as an accent to many mediums and it is so rich looking, it adds to any general appearence.

Hi Kieth - Now that Neatlac is not available any longer, what do you suggest for a last coat of sealer? What do you think about Saddlelac, or Resolene for the final coat? Thanks for posting the videos - I've enjoyed watching them...may have to post a few of my own sometime on braiding, etc...

Thanks for the suggestion of making it.
