  1. Here is a picture of a trial sample of a wallet I made and have been carrying in my back pocket, for about two months. notice the distortion on the back side due to the wallet having cards and a few papers in it. would anyone have an idea on how to prevent this distortion? other than not putting cards and money in the wallet? thanks Joel

    I made a hat

    I like the original one best,,, as dieselpunk style. The second one doesn’t look dieselpunk as much. IMO. Sure the crown on the first one is a bit wonky,,,,but in dieselpunk ,,,, a lot of the style is wonky. nice work, just the same! Joel
  3. That’s a nice improvement!
  4. For a first wallet I’d say it’s usable. Not a fancy big name quality, but definitely usable. So here’s some of my observations. I noticed them because I often struggle with them. 1. your stitching iron is to large for your thread., or viceversa 2. your leather looks to soft for this style of wallet. 3.use a punch for round types of holes. ( finger hole) Then cut to connect them. 4 straight corners will always bend or droop. 5. Soft leather will stretch every time. And take away from the overall esthetic of the project if not supported with a stiffener. not a critique, but a observation,,from a fellow leather destroyer.
  5. SOLD!! Thanks everyone for your interest. Joel
  6. This splitter is in a(pending funds) sale. next in line to purchase is Rossr, then JHLeatherwood. I will not mail this item until the PayPal account notifies me the funds are available. The total cost including shipped is $317.00 the buyer safety guarantee of PayPal can reverse your funds if needed. But I cannot reverse the mailed item if I’m not paid. I won’t ship the splitter until the PayPal notifies my that the funds are available. I also won’t withdraw the funds from PayPal until I ship the splitter and notify the buyer with tracking number and expected delivery date. I’m sorry I have to be this way. But shipping a $317.00 item out of my pocket to an unknown person is beyond my risk point. on bigger items like this splitter I’m not willing to chance ripped off. sorry Joel
