Soaking
You mention "definitely do not soak" in your tutorial. Why not?
I've soaked hundreds of sheaths over 25 years in the hottest water my tap can provide until no more bubbles come from the leather (it's saturated!).
Then I wet-mould immediately (bags & fridges??) and re-soak when it's getting harder to mould (like over the bottom end of thick folders).
It then gets to air dry overnight.
What have I been doing wrong?
