This is a great place to post pics your latest work. Please understand that as the threads get older, we're going to move the topics to the area they "fit", for example, bikes or holsters, just to keep this section manageable, and help the newer folks find lots of pics of the subjects they are interested in. If I have moved your post to the wrong area, please TELL me so I can fix it. Please don't be upset when I move an older post- it actually helps more people to find it. It also helps when we use descriptive titles. "Recent Projects" isn't as likely to get clicks as "Harley Saddlebags and Seat" or "Civil War Holster and Belt". To post your pics, use the "browse" …

As a project for a relative, I made this replacement piece for his binocular Harness. The original is a rubber like material, and a little short for his longer torso. While it isn't perfect, I'm fairly happy with how it turned out.

A celebrity designer reached out to us with a special request: create a full set of custom leather patches to cover an entire duffle bag. This piece is one of the 130+ embossed-and-embroidered leather patches we produced for the project. Each patch is made on genuine textured leather with precision embroidery to give it a raised, sculpted look. The details stay sharp, the edges stay clean, and the finish gives the bag a premium, handcrafted feel. It was a challenging build, but seeing all the patches come together across every side of the duffle bag made the effort worth it.

I made this wallet for my son. Not the cleanest tooling I've done but he was happy. Made the interior from black mission grain pig. And the back is finished with resolene.

The sheaths are not my work but I showed them all how to do it. This is my second class teaching sheath making. we spent a little time making a simple keychain that was featured in a "Skiver" newsletter many years ago . This served as a lesson in cutting stitching and dying before moving on to designing a sheath and working with larger pieces of leather. Most of the students had taken a knife making course at the school and now wanted a sheath for their creation.

hey there, my wife is asking for a center console cover for her pickup for Christmas. Any suggestions so that it stays in place? I don’t necessarily want to glue it in place. Should I just mold it or are there other suggestions? thank you!

Hey everyone, I’ve been working on improving my leather braiding techniques, especially with kangaroo hide, and recently completed a brown–red 16-plait snake whip. I’m trying to refine tapering, plait symmetry, and handle reinforcement, and thought this community might have some experienced eyes for feedback. I’ve been studying different braiding methods, core building techniques, and how to get the cleanest transitions. If anyone here specializes in whip-making or braiding, I’d really appreciate advice or critique. I’ve shared more of my work and built on my profile as well. Thanks in advance — always learning!
