    Hi Mike, I always try to ship at the most the next day. ETA depends on where you live, when shipping from Mexico, if it goes through the NY sorting office it always takes a little longer. You paid on the 28th, I shipped yours on the 29th.

    That is beautiful---is it a different/special die or mold to create the two-tone effect?

    No, its the same tooling, just different leather, vegetable vs chrome tanned. Veg tanned leather has more density, and is the only one which can be molded. I used tools intended for other uses, the thickness sander I have for the wood, I made a jig to use it to sand vegetable tanned leather very thin, before embossing I waxed the leather with the wax I use on the balsa shift knobs, this is the result. I did several already, trying different leathers I have, just now I'm embossing this same type of leather, dyed black, after I return from the post office I'll see the results.

    Great leatherwork!

    Just to satisfy my curiosity, is there any chance to see what the tool looks like?

    Regards
