    Awesome Work my daughter just got the same glove today. Got lucky because there wasn't one with 100 miles of Arizona. How much coat do you put on the outer super skin?

      Just enough to lightly cover the surface.

      Its just a common board home depot that I cut down to 6" x 3.5". Its just about1" thick. Thanks for watching. The rubber bands I use are a mix of size 105 and 106. Yes, Rubber bands come in sizes, who knew? :)

      @@mavenbalm I've been using ace bandage instead of rubber bands. Works great. Got my 9 year old a 12" Wilson a2000. Hopefully her forever glove. It brings me back to the old days. I love the glove probably more than her...but she still is crazy about it.

    Good stuff man. I prefer to keep my gloves a little stiff for longer durability as far sals the shape of the glove goes but good job. Any recommendations as far as breaking in a glove without using jot water?

    • @mavenbalm
      @mavenbalm  ปีที่แล้ว

      Same process but no water is all I can say. The end result should be the same but you’ll work much harder.

    Any way to stiffen up a mitt? I have a Wilson A800 Optima and I would like to stiffen up the leather.

    • @mavenbalm
      @mavenbalm  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi and thank you for watching. The only thing I could recommend would be going to a thicker lace on the entire glove. Typically we use 3/16 but moving to 1/4 inch could do the trick.
