Gibbsleatherworks Report post Posted May 15, 2008 I should have waited for the water marks to dry but I had to bring it to work to take a picture. My camera gave up on me. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bustedlifter Report post Posted May 15, 2008 Cool. That's a pretty skinny seat, any idea what it's going on? And can they send a pic? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
outcast Report post Posted May 15, 2008 Very nice! I like the tooling, and the construction. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Beaverslayer Report post Posted May 15, 2008 Gibbs, that seat is cool. I like the skinny front end, and there's something about the simpicity of the lacing that really makes the seat pop. I had a hard time to stop looking at the lacing, just something about it I really like. Thanks for sharing this. Ken Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TroyS Report post Posted May 16, 2008 I think I noticed where you didn't put in the smoke from the barrels? Any reason why not? A simple swivel knife cut will forever capture the "Smokin' Guns" effect ... and it'll catch just enough dye to make the effect real looking ... but, that's just my opinion....

Spider Report post Posted May 16, 2008 I'm with the guys on the liking the simplicity of the seat and the fun shape. Very cool. Surely an attention grabber. Great work. I wanna see the bike and it finished. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Troy Actually, the bike owner asked to have smoke comming from the barrels after I finished lacing. But its not sealed yet so Im adding the smoke latter today. Theres a Stoleman technique that only requires simple tooling without a knife cut. Pretty easy to do. I should have waited on the pictures. Im setting up a booth tomorrow at a Harley Dealer event and will have this baby out for a display. But no touchy touchy. Hope I can drum up some residual business. Wish me luck. Thanks for the compliments everyone, it means alot coming from such great craftsmen, and women....craftspeople.... Crafters.... eh.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TwinOaks Report post Posted May 30, 2008 I'd go with craftpersons, but I'm afraid Freak would feel left out. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
