276Ccm´s Leatherwork..

Recommended Posts

Just started to create a new seat.. the top is just shaped and not tooled yet, even tho I have the design in my head.. the underside is soon ready.. it´s a lot of work for something that most won´t see when it´s attached, but I like the idea of having details, just knowing it´s there :-)

Thanks a lot! :-) Sewing the seat together and my hands are pretty sore since it´s done by hand.. After I´m finished with the stitches I´m going to dye the rest of the seat.. then I have to sew another round since there will be double stitches, and then..

Just out of curiosity? Are there supposed to be horizontal ridges on your letters?

No, that was only a little masking :-)

I love the No Virgin seat, how did the coloring, with air-brush? And what do you use, any leather dye?

Thanks

Thanks a lot! Yea, on this seat I used an airbrush to color the seat.. layer by layer.. I use a danish brand of dye called Narvesvaerte :-) I´m very satisfied with it!

Added some dye to a new seat I´m working on.. trying to get it look a little old and worn.. Didn´t want a motive on this one.. But I can´t decide what kind of licing I should use.. it´ll be simple I think, but what color.. any idea? :-)

I think just a simple "XXXXXXXXX" would look great! In 3/16" Natural colored lace. It'll go well with the antique look (which I think kicks total :censored2:)!!!

Thanks.. I have already started hehe.. I used the "XXXXXX" stitches and tested a few lines with natural, but I was afraid it looked a little too "new" so I dyed it dark brown.. I like the contrast with natural on a brown seat, but... :-) I only had 3mm licing.. it could have been a little wider, but no time to get some new.. I think (hope) it´ll work as it is..

oh, and then done.. I used the suede part of the leather on the undeside.. never tried that before.. I will add a lot of leather grease to it and polish it real well prevent it from sucking up water..

Thanks a lot! Another Motorcycle bobber kind of solo seat with a brass frame.. so far no graphics on theis one, but the cool thing is that it is pretty easy to unscrew the screws and change the leather.. if I want different designs..

The last seat I made was for a new bobber project.. It won the jurys award at Oslo Motor Show 2010..

Here is the bike with the seat on.. (I also pinstriped the bike)5128695177_5f0fd6e363_z.jpg
