Spider

Straight from my brain to my pants

Recommended Posts

I made this with moo outter, pig skin inner with a snake pocket. I wanted to spoil myself and so I did. Open to critique if you have stuff that will help my next one. I need to work on my lacing start and finish. lol :head_hurts_kr:

I like it Spider, the skull rocks, and that background is way cool.

As too the lacing, the way you laced that is the one lace I do not do, I could never get a start or finish that I liked, so I just gave up on it....damned quiters eh. But as always, with practice you'll get it, I just didn't have the patience for it, go figure.

Cool wallet Spider! Yeah that bone swivel would be something.

The pockets and lining look great! Gotta figure that stuff out myself someday soon.

Lacing is what it is, practice prectice...

Cracked skull..evil

Dang it !! I've been wanting need to make myself a freakin wallet, BAD ! And now you just gotta go and show me this, huh. Well done man !! I really like the way you used the circles all so.

My monitor is kind of dark and i can't really see the lacing in full detail. Nor am i an expert at it in any means of the word. But one thing you might want to try is to atleast go thru the corner hole twice. Most will say 3 times. I like to go twice thru the two on each side of a corner and 3 times thru the corner.

Sleep is good Roo but work is way over rated !!

Thanks Ken,This double loop is easy for me now that I have practiced it but some of the stuff you do is just shocking. One day brotha, one day...

Thank you Roo, I put out every time I can. My head does not shut up very often. Even as I type this I am thinking of things to do and finish. I have a bitch'n one coming soon. Oh, and yes I have been at my job for 11 years now and I can sometimes squeeze work like lacing, drawing or stitching on a lunch break or while cutting a sample. Oh, and then there's time with my boy and wife. ffeeeww, i'm tired just talking about it.

Thanks Tom, I bought a few wallets and tore them apart for advice. Still trying new things though. I like lacing now but you're right. practice practice is key.Agreed Freak. Work is a must so it's not as much fun as this. Dude i'd love to see a wallet from you. I say get offline and go do it. Something Freak'n Badass. Thanks for the props. I think I'm lucky for your dark monitor cause you would see all my flaws. lol :head_hurts_kr: Thank you all for your support.

I can't take full credit for that. I've seen it used here and on bags made fully of that fabric. I got it a Joanns Fabrics by the yard. Cool material. I have some with black instead of red too.

very cool wallet!!

love the background stuff you did.

Thanks beeza,

I love the seeders and the other backgrounder. I need to find me a pebbler now. One hole was punched so hard it popped out of the 2/3 oz leather....oops. Put it back. lol :deadsubject: I just love this dead horse....LOL irrelavent

Thanks all. This one has been a great idea to make. I recommend it. I'm no master by any means at wallets but this has been a good demo piece whenever I go somewhere and then POW!!! Leatherwork sample. lol
