HOW TO CUT A EDGE SO THE
LEATHER LAYS FLUSH TO WOOD
You only have to do this if the leather insert does not fit flush to the edge.
One cause of this problem is when the leather is
replacing a very thin oil cloth.
Hold a sharp chisel at a 90% angle to the surface. Drag the chisel along the
edge
until the desired depth is reached. This may take a few cuts to get deep enough.
One thing to remember is take your time and cut slowly.
Smooth with 80 grit sandpaper and your done.
