Dyo Lanetzach for painting retzuos
Has anyone tried using dyo lonetzach for painting retzuos and would it be suitable or would it peel off?
How about the Bais of Uleovdo?

shin in "Alter Rebbe" script
Both the Shulchan Aruch Harav and the Mishnah Brurah use similar terminology when describing the importance of the shin being "pointy" on the bottom and all three branches of the letter shin meeting at a point or "chad" at the bottom of the letter. There is a strong foundation in Halacha for this and for the bottom of the shin to be flat like a moshav (base) is considered questionable (Pri Megadim) and definitely not Kosher Lechatchillah. It is worse if the moshav is very wide, but it is still questionable if it is lechatchillah if there is a thick noticeable base rather than a chad. Even for Sephardim, who lechatchillah make an angular base, it is still important that the base is indeed on a (significant) angle. If the base is flat, even if all three branches of the shin come out of the base connected , as in the top picture, it is problematic. It is worse in the bottom picture below where the right head/ branch comes out of the right part of the base and the m
The different ways of forming the"Hefsek Parshas Stuma" in tefillin parshiyos.
Following Ari's post, I have cut and pasted an article I wrote for a local publication some time ago on this very issue. I think it sums up this issue and the various shittos. I also suggest Rav Yonason Hershlags kuntres on this topic called "stumah shebestam". The different ways of forming the"Hefsek Parshas Stuma" in tefillin parshiyos. Introduction There is a common misconception that the only difference between the different minhagim (customs) of tefillin parshiyos is the ksav (font) they are written in. For example if a person is Sephardic, the ksav will be "Vellish", a script that is unique to Sephardic Jews; If one is of traditional Ashkenazic and non-Chassidic background, then he would usually get the "Beis Yosef" script; If one is "Chassidic", he would get the "Arizal" script, etc. While this is correct, there are also different opinions and minhagim on how to make the spacing between the parshiyos of th
I repaired the painting of my retzuot and batim with Dio Lanetzach for Rapidograph.
ReplyDeleteImportant: before painting, rub the area you plan to paint with sand paper to remove most of the old paint. Dio Lanetzach adheres well to sand-papered leather. It may not adhere as well to old paint.
Another note: Do not use Dio Lanetzach to paint new, unpainted, batim. The leather in new batim is slightly oily, which prevents good adhesion.
ReplyDeleteI am now experimenting with mixing Dio lanetzach half/half with acetone, as a first-layer paint. The acetone helps overcome some of the oiliness. But, you must use it all up after mixing. Don't store Dio mixed with acetone for a few days. It can ruin the dio.
