The soaked leather was let 'rest' for 10 min then draped over the mold, and both were placed in the zipock bag.
The pump was started and the air started to be sucked out, with the bag pulling the leather down over the mold.
Here I stopped the pump, removed the leather, trimmed the excess leather so it sat better on the mold and restarted the pump.
