  1. Hey Vikefan For Just a Belt - That's a Very Nicely Done belt! Simple and Well spaced pattern. Too bad about the vinegaroon! It sounds like your original plan would have been Really Nice. You could always make another? What fella dosn't have a use for a brown belt and a black belt? I don't do Facebook so I can't see your pics. This is all I get - "The page you requested cannot be displayed right now.

  2. Got the key fob die on Saturday, that I ordered on Monday. Happy camper here.....

  3. FYI - I am working on my Leatherwork Web site, but this is the last page of my cleaning service website - it's pretty cute http://home.mindspring.com/~ampmservices/id10.html

  4. More compliments coming your way... Wow, that is unbelievable for your first project! you have obviously reading up and taking notice of the wealth of knowledge here. I can Just Imagine where you can go from here Awesome job!
  5. They are doing it again - 2 owls calling to each other and it sounds Soooooo cool! Early in the morning, cold and clear with a full moon.

  6. OK - I didn't want to add another Adblock ...... Soooooo I got it fixed – in Foxfire I clicked on Adblock Plus – Adblock Plus Filter Preferences – custom filters and I used the find box and entered Mozilla and unchecked the one filter that showed up. Went to my email and the picture opened up! So Yeahhhhh! Thank you Beaverslayer - for reminding me of the Mozilla connection. Bill - I am so goad you got yours fixed too! That's one less thing to spend time and figure out!
  7. There were 2 owls calling to each other and it sounds soooooo cool! Early in the morning, cold and clear with a full moon coming in 2 days... Does the Full moon make you want to hoot or howl?

      I'm always a little hootie...

  8. Thank you so much for your help! *I couldn't figure out how to do that. I have disabled Adblock Plus for a couple of Firefox webpages, but I browse with Firefox and get my email through SeaMonkey and I can't figure out how to disable Adblock Plus for that. When I am on Firefox it is Easy to "Disable on this page only"... Simply click on Tools - Adblock Plus - "Disable on this page only" - on each page I want that disabled. When I am on SeaMonkey and click on Tools - there is no link to Adblock Plus... or if there is I can't find it......... yet
  9. Hmmmmmm, I use Fiebings Leather dye and I have always used water to dilute. I didn't think I had any problem with how it turned out. What would be the difference in the end result if I used alcohol?
  10. I downloaded that 'Adblock Plus' and it just works fine without having to do anything to it. Except - When my sister sends pictures from her phone I have to disable 'Adblock Plus' to do see the pictures. Are you sure you don't just have to unclick Disable everywhere under Tools - Adblock Plus ... ? Or is your Adblock Plus just all gone?
  11. Hi Julia Hope you had a nice Thanksgiving weekend! After tooling I add a light coat of Neatsfoot oil to the leather... after casing and tooling you will find that the leather has lost some of its natural oil. Some folks use Neatsfoot - some use Olive oil. Then I let it dry for a day before I 1. add color - or 2. just let the piece spend some time in the sun for a natural 'sun" tan. I just use water to dilute my dye and Tan-Kote to dilute my Antique although, others may use something else to dilute... *You may find others have their own preferred products or procedures, but I think this is a good basic plan to start with and then after some practice you might try something else that you like better. Some times you just need to practice on scrap till you get it just the way you want it. Finish comes last - after the coloring... unless you have an area that you don't want the color to stick.. read ----> Some Tips On How To Use Antique Hope this helps
  12. You've got a real nice design there! Should be eeeeasy to sell.
  13. Very Nice wallets & Good Job on the zipper! I like em all! if you don't mind - Where'd you get that concho?

    Is that a Budweiser Beer cap imbedded in the leather? Very clever!
  15. I like your style... Very Nice, and I am sure she is going to love that for years to come!
  16. That is made for paper - you would be sorely disappointed if you want to use it for leather. It is probably great for paper tho... I have a Tippmann 700 Clicker and it is solid and sturdy - made of metal and 260 lbs. Very well made and have had No problems with it for the last 4 years. * compare that with this... Tippmann 700 Clicker
  17. Hmmm, If there is a link to unsubscribe, I thought the problem was when you click on it and they ask for your email address... I would never give them my address - I figured that is how they get it. But I thought it was OK to unsubscribe when they just say right away that you have been unsubscribed... ? I can't believe there are still people out there that would fall for that scam from Nigeria anymore... My Spam blocker gets 95% of the spam BUT when I get the ones from Nigeria I send them this - I can't remember where I got it, but I never hear from them again Attention: Who Ever You Really Are: To stop internet fraud, which your e-mail appears to be, the following agencies, (ICPO-Interpol, Europol, RCMP, New Scotland Yard, FBI, Secret Service, EFCC, Australia Westpac Banking Corporation), have combined their resources and created the NW3C and its complaint center, commonly known as IC3.

  18. I Found this thread and learned something cool about my computer... I downloaded Adblock Plus and it is Grrrrreat! Works perfect and it was Eeeeasy to download! Thanks! I love this place
  19. Oh Good. I am glad you found the link. I was just thinking - after I found it - I thought I'd post the link to save some 'search time' for anyone else reading this post.
  20. Here's that link - I think....... Guitar Strap Pattern
  21. Hand tooling is a FANtastic Art and I have seen some Absolutely Amazing leatherwork here, but I use some emboss plates and I do have quite a lot of job and customer satisfaction... http://www.bunkhousetools.com/ (as WinterBear mentioned) is the website and duckcreektraders is the ebay auction
  22. No chance of a sun tan today!

      Actually, I was just complaining about all the rain we have had this week... I like the feel of sun on my skin too :) I'll just wait for the sun to come out again to tan my leather.

    3. Sylvia

      Sylvia

      yeah we've had some dark heavy clouds here too.

  23. Maybe you could find a buckle here at HardwareElfe.com
  24. Cyberthrasher - You are right about using Antique, this is how most folks use it. How ever, like a lot of procedures and products there are other ways to use it. jsb - Some of the things I make I only use Antique to color the leather (after a lite coat of Neatsfoot and time for that to dry some) and then when the Antique is dry I use it again to highlight the tooling. My avatar is leather colored with Saddle tan Antique and you might find this to be of some use... Some Tips On How To Use Antique
