  • I'm going to go deep into the practice of "mudding" NFL Leather footballs and I'm going to try a modified version of the process on this leather wallet.
    First, I'll test three different mixtures:
    1. Straight (Water) Mud
    2. Leather Balm Mud
    3. Neatsfoot Mud

    I keep thinking you need a control group of just water, balm, and oil without the mud.

    @powershouse 7 месяцев назад +1

    The dirt selected makes a difference. I suspect the “official” mud is fine-grained silt or clay which is abrasive enough to take the shine off of a ball without scratching the surface up. The mineral makeup of the specific “mud” determines the color.

    I’ve been watching your videos for three years now, my deepest sympathies for your wife, like a lot of comments people send you , I don’t send many, but I watch your videos more than you can imagine lol ,I’m retired and it’s a great hobby,getting fairly good at building style of wallets and I appreciate your videos very much, my niece wants me to build her a Truman trifold, do have a video building one? Or just the short version? Again thanks again for the videos, you are the man Artie!!! Keep up the good work!

    Hello fellow Masters graduate! This actually explains a lot: Manicured hands, well spoken, attention to detail, etc. Did you make it to the unappreciated position of Principal or did you teach High School history. In either case, it is extremely gratifying to see another of your fantastic videos and of course lil' Chloe. Cheers, my friend.

    Nice experiment! But i don't think the mud/dirt was necessary, i think you'd get the same result with just the oil. I generally use olive oil on straight veg tan as it gives it a nice dark patina'd look. Enjoy the videos as always!!

    Not ruined! Love that but is the dirt necessary? I wonder if it's mostly just the neetsfoot oil doing the job. Does the official rubbing mud come out different you think?

  • @Darkeklaw

    The spot might of been some Tokonole. It has a habit of blocking dyes once it's applied.

    Good afternoon! Unfortunately, I did not find any information about the skin on the website. What kind of leather do you make your products from? Crazy horse, pull-up or is it vegetable tanned leather? You could tell me, because I really like the way they look at you and I would like to achieve the same visual effect for my products. Thank you in advance!
