I have read, several artical's in books on how you know when your leaher is cased! Okay, the leather that has been in thefrig for a long time, has no mold or mildew, they ae sealed in a zip lock bag, I pulled one piece out at 7:am here, and didn't start working on it untill about 10:30, I never saw any light spots and the edges seemed pretty soft, by that time my back said bye, bye, i put it back in it bag and back in the frig.! I never saw it chane olors, so more that likely It wasn't ready to work? I know that you guys that do this stuff for a living, and a lot of the rest of this group that just do it bcaus they love it, must have some tips or clues to tell me.
I hope there will be a time that a newbie will come on here and ask a question and I will be able to answer what they need! I have learned everything I know by watching someone r as someone, or just did it! But no more good hours get in a day to get up a do something, I have to ask these dumb question! I think that is why those two holster cut outs have been in the frig. so long, is I want to do a good job, something That I can show off and be real proud off! My other rigs don't look bad from 10 feet, you can eve get closer to the Black ACE Deablo!
I will be great full for all help

Now you see I put them 2 holster cut outs in big ziplock bags and put them in my little fringerator that I keep my beverages in. I like my bevs. to be COLD! I wasn't thinking about the leather! Last night after a lot of thinking(which is hard on my head) thats why I keep my bev. cold, I went out to the shop, got a cut out in the bag and place in on the counter unzipped! 5am this morning I go out to the shop and and get out of the bag and let it are dry till 7am, then i went out and it tooled like putty
So the Lesson Learned "Don't keep your leather in the same place you keep you drinkables"!!
