Re: Tools and equipment for sale
??!!
I have used the hot melt wax for hand wax...as is and by adding other ingredients to it...but I would never think to use the liquid wax for hand stitching. There's some sort of lubricant in it.
That said it does dry out and leave a crust of sorts on my straight needle.

Re: Tools and equipment for sale
I have to acknowledge it. You're probably right.
Thread lube is lubed.
I must have mis-heard. My bad. Thanks for 'riding herd'.

Forgive me, but I don't follow this. It's liquid wax that penetrates the thread. Solvents evaporate. What's the issue? That the lubricant will deteriorate the leather?

Re: Tools and equipment for sale
Eric,
No, the lubricant would keep a tight knot from forming. It would slip. Liquid Stitching Wax for curved needle stitchers need to bear the friction of the process, so it's lubed.
My confusion, please excuse me.
Jon had posted Liquid Stitching Wax, and I left off talking about using thread lube for hand stitching.

OK, thanks.
Still, I think it's worth experimenting with the stuff. I used it for the one pair I made for myself and it seemed to be OK.

Re: Tools and equipment for sale
I have added quite a few shoe and boot making hand tools to my website for sale today - http://brucejohnsonleather.com/content/index.php/leather_tools_for_sale/shoe-and -boot-making-tools-for-sale/ .

Thank you, Bruce

Re: Tools and equipment for sale
High all, I just came back from a couple years in Germany and bought a fair amount of tools. I have some duplicates I'll not need and would be willing to part with, mostly edge irons. If anybody is looking for something let me know and maybe we could make a deal.

Re: Tools and equipment for sale
I have added a few more boot and shoe making tools to my website today. I am pretty sure everyone who asked me about a straight channeler has them now, so the fresh ones are all fair game. I also added a couple pegging wheels and some pretty cool folding measuring sticks. Here is the link - http://brucejohnsonleather.com/content/index.php/leather_tools_for_sale/shoe-and -boot-making-tools-for-sale/ . Thank you, Bruce

Re: Tools and equipment for sale
I am looking for scraps of kangaroo leather. I would be interested in buying them by the pound.

Pls email me at farmerfalconer@aol.com if you might have something of interest!
Thanks,
Cody
