replacing back catch leathers.

I doubted the use of hide glue for years, thinking there had to be some on
the market that worked better. All I found out that Hide glue is superior
not only for it's strength but its working properties. I regret not starting
earlier. There are tons of information in the archives with links and
references to sources and applications.

schedule a lesson with the local  RPT and make some glue with him.
