Just got this done for a customer who has ordered several things from me previously. The other iPhone case she had was a factory made job that only semi fit her phone and was not overly functional. Hopefully, this will suit her needs better. I think it turned out pretty good. Let me know what ya'll think of it. Thanks for looking and I hope all of you are blessed.
Would you be able to send me the pattern you used for this? I would like to try this pattern for my phone.

I am getting tired of the tedious task of cutting patterns out by hand and am looking for clicker dies for spur leathers and such. If anyone has some they would like to sell, used or new, contact me with picture, and how much.
Contact me at:

Thank you kindly!

I am looking for a shoulder (or 2 sq,ft.) of 7-9 oz. latigo leather to make slobber straps. Tandy sells it by the side, but I don't need that much.
Contact me if you have something. Thanks!

I just made a Face book Page for my leather work. I have posting pictures of my work on my personal page, and just decided that maybe I should have one devoted just for leather items. I have invited some key friends/individuals to "like" my page...maybe it will take off from there. Not sure how well it will be, but anything goes for me!
Happy Trails! -
Here is another way to do it.
I also will use a a plan loop back concho too and then put a Chicago screw in from of the concho like these straps
I have tried conchos with just the screw back and have not found a good way to keep the spur button from showing (to me it is not a clean look with it showing behind the main strap) or from having the screw back work lose. I do like the two or three Chicago screws placed around the concho so that you can put you spurs on them put on the concho (making it much easier to get your spurs on the strap) I would also like to say that I have found that when you use a concho that it is easy to make the straps to big. This happens because the hole for the spur button is not in the middle where it would be normally, but can be a inch longer, specially if your button is behind the main body of your straps.

Mark, Can you show me what the back of the spur strap and concho looks like on this pair of leathers? I am having a hard time trying to position my hole for the spur button in the lining of the leather. Thanks!

How did you attach the conchos? Can you post pictures of the back of the strap showing it?

What oz of leather do you use for your straps? I have used 8/9 oz. leather for single ply. I am in the process of trying 6/7 oz. for a lined pair. Hopefully this works. I also got my hands on a pattern from Caledon Leather in Calgary. Going to try this out! I haven't done a lined pair before with a concho.

I am making buckaroo style spur straps, and am wondering how do you make them with the conchos so that they cover the spur button?
I see so many beautiful straps done with conchos, but never see what they look like from the other side. Can anyone help me?
Thanks folks!
Happy trails....

Hi Mark,
I am a newbie getting into leather craft myself, and really enjoying it! I'm in SK, Canada. The working cowboy gear is what I am trying my hand at. I do have a question on attaching the conchos to the spur straps where the spur buttons go on....what is the best way to do that?
