cuir bouilli

Sat Mar 3, 2007, 10:40 PM
  • Mood: Lazy
  • Eating: mac and cheese
  • Drinking: Water
So the other morning I decided to test boil a few pieces of leather to harden them. About 30 seconds in the pot and they came out shriveled, and the tooling I had done to one piece had come out. One piece I molded while the other I just pressed to keep it flat, by evening they were solid. So I now know how to make cuir bouilli(boiled leather) and need something to make with it.

Oh, I'm also fishing for ideas for a case for my pool cue. Balls would be too expected... Dragon scale or something of the sort might be neat, Something that I might be able to put some color into even...

Howdy hey
Its been okay, transferred to san jose state for next semester... so school is going to be twice as much of a pain in the ass. Other than that I've been spending pretty much all my time at home with my girlfriend relaxing. How about you?

ever wonder about PERFECTION?
if there is a perfect man,
women would love God less...
because they would love the man more...
