This Saddlebag and pattern was referred to in a recent post and I thought I'd bump it up... Great patterns here and an interesting idea of how to make a wrinkle pattern on the leather by rolling it in different directions. Don hasn't been on for a couple of years, but I just love the way everyone shares their ideas and patterns here at LW.net

I've got a 700 clicker from Tippmann, so I buy the replacement piece from them. You could give them a call or send an email and talk to Jim Miller - He is real easy to deal with. jim@tippmannindustrial.com TOLL FREE: 866-286-8046 Hope this helps

I would be proud to have those saddlebags, or to have made those saddlebags... I doubt the cowboys of the 'good ol days' thought twice about Premium leather. That is Fine work, mighty fine

Wow, That is sooo nice... I'm not sure that my tools could make something that nice

You might find some of what you are looking for at Santa Fe Jewelers Supply and I use the hatband buckles from Tandy for my watches and bracelets ][/u] Southwest Hatband Buckle Set 3/8" Hope this is of some help

I have a blackberry and would love to make a case for it... None of the links above work for me. Is there a chance anyone has a copy of the pattern that they could share? It would be good of you could make the pdf file a jpg..... Thanks in advance

I had saved that pattern and another and some pictures of cases all made by BearMan (from here at LW.net) I just looked for his post, but it seems to be gone along with all of the pics from that post... Hope this helps pattern and pictures of cases are from an old BearMan post

I was thinking the same... about switching your process. Also why not use Antique? Antique can be diluted to a lighter shade if that is a concern... Resist the letters, Antique the piece - using that for the background color, Then paint your letters... Some Tips On How To Use Antique hope this helps

I can't remember where I found this - but think it might help! Aging Leather -

Morning Phil Yah, me too... I never sign out... A lot of the time my computer is just on and I am out. I did look at the help files, and could not find an answer there either... I did find something about something called "My Assistant" that is (and I quote directly from the Help files) "The 'My Assistant' feature can be accessed by clicking the link of the same name in the board header. This tool provides quick links to many important areas on the board, as well as quick access to common features. My Assistant has four seperate feature tabs: Information - this tabs offers links to the overall and daily Top Ten posters, as well as your last ten posts on the board. You can also click to view the Moderation Team. New Posts - will show you a link to any new posts made since your last visit, and how long ago they were posted. Search - using this, you can search the forum basically the same way the standard search function works. This box will show you the number of results, and allow you to click to view them Recent PMs - on this tab, you can view your 5 most recent PMs and when they were received. The My Assistant is also used when a new PM arrives. If you have selected to be notified when a new PM is received, the My Assistant box will appear on your screen displaying your new PM." I was hoping My Assistant would help, but I don't find anything in the board header that says My Assistant... * Hey, no biggie - eventually we will get this all figured out... I know Johanna is workiin hard to get this all fixed up for up and is doin a Grrrrrreat job of it too!

How? Out of curiosity, I have looked around and can't figure that one out...

I found a some links that might help Hunters Hat Knock Off This one only has basic directions and no pictures How to make a Homemade Hunting Hat but it might be of some help I found this hat with flaps for kids and there is a pattern for the segments. You might need to re-size and redesign the flaps, but this might be a good place to start Also there is Leatherhelms and they make some Very Cool helmets and hats you might get some ideas there too.... hope this helps
