Order of Operations in Leather Tooling

[@ffaubert1]

I learn to use the acronym 'TO CRAP'. Tool, Oil, Colour (dyes and paints), Resist, Antique, Protect. Works well and easy to remember even if it is a little poorly labelled.

Incredibly helpful to have a quick, to the point video, with access to more in depth links. Thank you!

I made some suspenders recently from natural veg tan. I used black antique without sealing the leather and was rewarded with a beautiful silver finish and the tooling was hi lighted wonderfully.

This was really helpful. I'm hoping tonight to start my first project. (disabled) Sometimes my body doesn't want to cooperate. I have some really thin leather scraps that I plan on doing some tooling on and then try to make a simple key chain to see where it goes. Suggestions appreciated. Like your catch phrase too btw

Thank you. It s realy clear! When wet molding should be done ?

[@WeaverLeatherSupply]

If you can tool while the item is on the mold, that is ideal. If not you can wet mold after tooling, but, you may lose a little bit of definition since you are stretching the leather as you mold it.
