Good looking coat Luke. I'm sure he's quite proud of it. Do you have any pictures of other stuff you've made?

Bare Bones
ETW Grumpy replied to Kevin King's topic in Purses, Wallets, Belts and Miscellaneous Pocket Items
Looks good Kev. I like your linings, too. Keep it up. -
Welcome to the forum. Looks better than my first attempt, too. Keep practicing. Keep reading and watching good instructional materials and you'll get better. The main thing is to learn the basics and practice them before you try more advanced stuff. That and always have fun.

smile now, cry later
ETW Grumpy replied to Kevin King's topic in Purses, Wallets, Belts and Miscellaneous Pocket Items
Very nice work, Kevin. Do you think you could come up with a tutorial on how to do vector art from a picture? I have been trying to figure that out for some time now. -
repost - IPOD case
ETW Grumpy replied to howardb's topic in Purses, Wallets, Belts and Miscellaneous Pocket Items
Dude, that's killer! Do you have any with other faces on them? That's great looking work. -
did me first holster tonight
ETW Grumpy replied to Drac's topic in Gun Holsters, Rifle Slings and Knife Sheathes
Regardless of what type of leather is used for the lining, the gun shouldn't be stored in the holster. It's the tannic acid in the leather that will eat your finish. -
Cellphone case
ETW Grumpy replied to Rawhide's topic in Purses, Wallets, Belts and Miscellaneous Pocket Items
Very nice work. I use velcro on mine because of the risk of breaking the screen. freak, where do you get those magnets? -
broncobuster, where do you get bulk chain from? Is it the chrome dog lead kind or something different. I have been looking forever and can't find what I want.

Watchband question
ETW Grumpy replied to ericluther's topic in Purses, Wallets, Belts and Miscellaneous Pocket Items
Nice work. Love the Mexican round braid. I noticed that you're holding the watch to the band with snaps. Does that hold well enough to use it with heavier watches? I've got a Seiko divers watch that I need to make another band for. -
The color is awesome. How'd you get that look?

First holster - reposting final result
ETW Grumpy replied to howardb's topic in Gun Holsters, Rifle Slings and Knife Sheathes
Nothing wrong with that one howard. The edges look really great. Post some more pices when you take it ot of the sun. I'd be curious to see how it changes. -
That's really beautiful work, Roger. Whoever that's going to will be very pleased.

Whiskey (kinda)
ETW Grumpy replied to Kevin King's topic in Purses, Wallets, Belts and Miscellaneous Pocket Items
Kev, I had to buy a spool of orange for a job, still not my favorite color. :-) It's good to be back. When I get my shop straightened up, I hope to be able to show some more stuff. -
Really clean lines, Roger. Great looking tooling.

Beautiful lettering. Very nice work. -
Black on Black on Black
ETW Grumpy replied to Kevin King's topic in Purses, Wallets, Belts and Miscellaneous Pocket Items
Very nice Kevin. What are the dimensions? Do you make the insides yourself? If so, how heavy is the leather? -
That's very cool, freak.

I picked up the tattoo designs book as well. The designs in it weren't as good as I had hoped they would be, but there were enough to make it worth buying.

Mike's right. They are a great resource to have. Each issue has a pull out pattern section for all of the projects they show. They do a lot of step by step type articles and even accept articles from readers. Really good magazine, too bad it's only bi-monthly.

Hey Luke, are those live shells on that guitar strap? I'm about to incorporate something similar into a seat and I was wondering if you used live shells, or dumped the powder out or got dummies or what.

custom brief cases and satchels
ETW Grumpy replied to Mike Craw's topic in Satchels, Luggage and Briefcases
Definitely something to be proud of. I want to do one when ( if ) I ever get time. -
I like that smooth look. That's a very nice saddle.
