I thought we had a forum for this but I didn't see one. If there is please feel free to move it there.
I want to make a leather pouch type thing. The peice I want to put in it is rectangular and I need to be able to remove it. The pouch I want to make is only out of a few leather strips with snaps to close it. Kind of like a cell phone case but with strips only instead of an actual pouch.
My question is, if I wet the leather straps will they hold their shape and stiffen when dry? And also should I make the strips before installing the snaps? I don't want them to rust.
Thanks,
