What Was Your First Leather Project?
Luke Hatley replied to gaseousclay's topic in Leatherwork Conversation
My start was a Leather Visor...somewhere in the 60's. Bought a Visor Kit, one tool and a bottle of Omega Dye, at Tandy. Made my visor then about 15 more that summer. Then learned to do Basket Weave stamping , on the billfolds then on to belts. This has been a great Learning experience for me and enjoy it more than I ever did... -
Belt Question
Luke Hatley replied to Tommy217xxx's topic in Purses, Wallets, Belts and Miscellaneous Pocket Items

Yes i started out with paper ....The customer liked it.

How Do You Sew A Short Edge Next To Raised Surface?
Luke Hatley replied to Mark Moss's topic in Leather Sewing Machines
I M H O....you know what you should have done...But now....put your Narrow feet on the machine and start sewing. You will have to somewhat Flatten your moldered front as you are sewing. Then after you have it sewn , Re mould the project and use your bone folder to smooth the feet markes out. -
