  1. I also use an x-acto knife for cutting out hair barrettes and other small items. David
  2. Troy, I know the product as particle board. I agree with you...I will be using solid wood as a mold. I'm sure it will hold up much better than particle board would. Thanks for your info! David
  3. I have a dumb question...what is MDF and where do I find it. Is there an advantage in using MDF over wood? Thanks, David
  4. I haven't tried wet molding yet but I'm interested in doing it. What are your molds made of? It doesn't look like wood in your photo. David
  5. It looks really good to me! Did you use an airbrush to color it?
  6. Anyone else missing their avatar? Mine has disappeared! Well there you are you little squirt!!!! I swear it was missing...no foolin'!!!!! David Fields
  7. I appreciate all the responses! The main reason why I can't use a snap is because it tends to twist around and my design requires a rigid, fixed position with no twisting. Velcro offers that. I think the pattern is kind of cool (I've never seen one similar anyway) and hope folks will appreciate it despite the velcro fastener. If not then I'll have to think of another solution. I have a cell phone case using a velcro fastener that I've been using for 2 years and so far I've had no problems with the velcro dots coming off. But the super glue is a good idea just to be sure it stays on. Thank you everyone! David
  8. Nice looking seats! I only wish I could do lacing as well as you. David
  9. Yep, to me your design screams graphic designer, I'm one too. I've discovered that my graphic design background really comes across in my leather designs. David
  10. I've seen snaps and lacing used to connect the ends of bracelets but don't believe I've ever seen velcro. With the wrist band pattern I'm designing, velcro is the only connector that will work properly. In your opinions is there any reasons why velcro wouldn't be a good choice? David
  11. Thanks Tom! I don't know what you mean by "string my bracers". Are you saying you lace it instead of using snaps? David
  12. Very nice design! I like the way the back graphic continues over to the front. David
  13. You done good my friend, nice job! I haven't done a bracelet before, how do you know what length to make it (assuming your making them to sell). People have different size wrists. I guess the width can be any size up to maybe 2"? David
  14. Hello King's X Do you have a pattern for the bottle koozie that you wouldn't mind sharing? Thanks! David
