Did you cut the leather?

No I bought it as a roll from a leather supply store. 50 meters for about 12 bucks.

It`s the same thickness as the Tiger stacked leather, about 1.05mm

5 meters ish.

Nice job! You obviously have a vast amount of patience, something I am greatly lacking.

It takes a few hours, but I`m pretty sure it will go quite a bit faster when I`ve done a few more and have worked out some of the kinks.

Looks GREAT. I did a few decades ago and to me the hardest part was cutting the angle at the start and end. Did you wax or Shoe Polish after? Nice looking gloss finish.

Hi Tom. I used saddle laquer for the final shine.

How hard is it to do without a full cue repair setup? Is this doable by hand? I'm sure many others would also appreciate a general workflow for this sort of neat project!

Nice work Kim, especially for your first effort.

It would be hard. I`m not sure how you would get the grip evenly sanded in a reasonably amount of time without a lathe.
