    So I went to my local leather worker and spoke to him about my project. After seeing my drawings and the fur I have on hand he cut a thin sheet of leather that would be used for a wallet. He told me to get a adhesive called E-6000 he wants me to lightly spread this glue to the pelt and let it dry for 5 minutes to get tacky. Then I carefully laid the thin leather over the glue and pressed every inch to stick the two pieces together. Once the pelt and the leather are glued together I have to let it dry for 24 hours. I'll have a update for the next step soon. wile I do this project if any one has tips for me they would be appreciated. I am thinking out every step as much as I can but I have learned that the xmarks rabble is a wealth of knowledge.




    I realized that the pelt has a natural curve in it so I cut the leather into strips that might overlap. I am going to try to have it follow the curve of the pelt.
