    That was AWWWSOMEE Clay !! Thanks so much for taking the time to do a WIP step by step with pictures and editoral of each picture. I know that took some time to do. Nice job man, it turned out great.
  2. i hit the chat lastnite, good stuff rite there !! Had to take a 30 min break to watch TMW and get my video fix. Although they didn't show #8 which was the one i wanted to see. ARG !! When i came back grrrreat info to be had. All i had to do was ask. I think just the BSing was the best though. It gives you a little more insight to a person. Thanks for all the tips Clay & Tom. Also everone be looking for a HOW TO , step by step with lots of pictures on Figure Carving by Clay !!!!! Sorry Clay but the live chat ain't Vegas ....
  3. MAN, very very nice. I've gotta get some vidoes. Thanks for the tips.
  4. Don't lie, we all know it's yours . LOL Looks great man.
  5. This kid is my new hero. He lets nothing stand in his way. everone must see this video. This kid rock !! http://view.break.com/141886
  6. I like the look of the white. Very nice. What type of lace is that ?
  7. I like the looks but as you've said it needs to be tighter. But hey for a first go at it,,, you did it, rite . That skin is pretty light weight, you might be able to rivet it without punching holes in the leather. Did you make the seat pan aswell ?? Got any pictures of the underside ?
  8. As for the dye, twice i've use the "pro dye" for Tandy LF . The first time i didn't catch that i was useing dye and made a book cover waaaayyy to dark. LOL. Then when i tried it on a barstool i was making I still could not get it the shade i wanted. It seems the more i try to get a even coat the darker the piece gets, which i know that's gonna happen. When i get ready to do my next piece i'll post Q's about it then. Really, really nice work there Dan !!! I've only yet to do a handfull of leather work but i'll post a few pics. My hosting for my website seems to be a bit flaky lately. So i'll add a few attachments. The first being the first piece i did just to see if i could, then a couple barstools.
  9. Hello all !! I just started leather woriking a few monthes ago and i've been looking for a forums like this from day one. I'm so happy i found this place. Thanks you, thank you very much !! Oh i've got Q's and know i've got a place to ask, awsome ! How i got started : Well i built my own custom mini chopper. I've built everthing on it that i have the tools to do so, from the frame up. So of course i need to do the seat myself. In practice to do the seat i just found a image i liked and tooled it. Then i decided to do a barstool i had in the garage. Lacing and stretching that was a great learning curve. Boy could i of used this site then . lol . Well know i've done 4 barstools. It gets addictive, don't it ? I've learned something new evertime. Dying seems to be something i have yet to truely get the hang of. So look for lots of Q's there. Staining i think i've got the hang of but, i'de like to use dye. Anyway i'm the new freak around here and thanks for being here.
