I have had a major breakthrough, and may be able to start producing leathers on a shop basis (and ramp up to small-scale factory production, pending customers) very quickly. In the process, I may also have stumbled onto a means by which one can remove several steps, and about 3/4 of the tanning time, out of making veg-tan leather, as well. (Though whether my method will allow for tooling remains to be seen).
Go me!
UPDATE: Yup, it tools, all right.

/ January 12, 2007Yep. Works like a charm. Takes 90% of the labor out, too, so you can actually see your husband now and then…
