Hey leather people, help me out. I'm working on a sling, and I cased the leather overnight. I filled a bowl with water and dipped the leather in until it stopped bubbling. Then I put the leather in a plastic bag and left it in the fridge overnight. Today when I started working on it, it took my first stamps fairly well but I was worried it was too wet. So I let it sit for an hour or so, and now when I scored it with a stylus, it looks dry on either side of the score. I tried basketweave tooling near the end of the sling as a test, and it barely took the "3D" part of the stamping. Is it too dry now? It's still cool to the touch and feels a bit damp front and back.

I ended up just letting it dry and then re-wetting it today. Better safe than sorry. What about the "drying" beside the places I scored it? Is that normal?
