Hello !
I'm making a strop that I'm gluing to redwood and I have a couple questions
Which is preferable...
1) Veg-tanned leather
2) Chrome-tanned leather
or Chrome Veg Retanned?
Do you think a black latigo leather might be best? Any favorites suppliers?
Also, how much of a difference does it make whether I use chromium oxide or diamond-based abrasives? Should I use both? Is one SIGNIFICANTLY BETTER than the other?
I've also heard that with a high quality leather, it is better to not use a compound. What are your thoughts? I'd rather use the highest quality leather possible... but will it be water-resistant?
