    Haha! Yeah, sure. I'm sure I'll need something else to do while I'm waiting for something to dry.

    Hard to tell the difference in the photo, but a bit more depth after sanding back again, and restaining with a very very slight fade to dark on the edges.

    Bro, this is serious gear now. That top is rippling, the match is fantastic and what you are doing with it is sublime. I can’t wait to see this with all its gear on.

    G’day, tell me, because I can’t find it in the thread, what the stain is and what shade they call the blue?
    Thanks.

    In have several different shades of the blue leather dye to use on a swamp ash body and they have all been very dark.

    Cliff, they're U Beaut water-based dyes. Green Black base, then Blue. Both diluted to something like 5 or 6 parts water. Very easy to work with.

    Noted the box was addressed to the house 2 doors up, so I had to put my thongs on and finish the delivery myself.
    Where's my Cartier watch AP?

    cheers, Mark.
    Funny how different things are in AUS. I know what avro means, but why do people wear more than one thong?

    Flip flops mate. In NZ they’re called jandals.
