I’m including an image of the original back check. As you can see, the back check head quite large. New ones (three different types shown) have a totally different physical dimension to the point that it’s beginning to look like it would be faster to simply recover the existing back check heads. If I were to go that route ........... and aside from getting the grain of the leather in the right direction ............ is it critical to get the leather at a consistent tightness to get some reasonable checking effect?? A procedure involving a clothes pin has been suggested. Comments?? -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
