I have wood, I have leather, I have a desire to upgrade from balsa to leather for my pasted strop. Problem is, my leather is scraps from a 12 inch square (maybe 18inch) I have enough for both sides of a 1.75 inch board(for CroOx and FeOx) would it be worth the time to do I or should I hold out for longer or wider leather?
16 inches of actual surface stropping length is about the average that I found by measuring strops so that is what I used for my Bench strops
Thanks Glen. I'll wait for some 3 inch wide pieces 18 inches long before I attempt it. Why make it less then ideal?
