Great color

The test tupe rack sound like a good idea and having a seprate block for the tools you have used on a project also sounds great I bet it keeps you from having to rember what you used a great time saver. Thanks fot the tips Doug

Those are cool

You are the man, that was great. What kind of tape is that you are using

Great looking items how does the seat work in the rain or do you only ride in the summer. Cand we see the inside of the bag :notworthy:

That sure is nice I love the colors great job.

I wonder if brewer's pitch would seal it.

Nice Job I like the way they look.

Did these Bronc Halters for some high school gals they like the blink and the color. Might have to give these another coat of paint the camera always shows the bad spots. Thanks for looking Doug

Great job

Those are really neat do you form them over something to keep the shape, what grade of leather do you use and what kind of paint or stain. Thanks Doug

Great Job!!!!

I bet she like it.

Great job love the color

I love what you did with the inside is that just fabric?

Looks nice are those spots or rivits?

Nice Idea I need to do one for a note.

Was the leather veg-tanned? How did you apply the Hi-Lite was the leather damp or dry I have better luck with water based stain if its a little damp, make sure the finish is water based if you are going to rub it on. If you’re going to spray it on do what immiketoo suggested let it dry then buff. If I’m going to use a Hi-liter I normally use a dye first then put the hi-liter on this gives the piece a contrasting look between light and dark. If I want to bring out the grain of the leather and add some contrast I apply something like Super-Shene first then I hi-lite to enhance the tooling rubbing it into the tooling and cuts then wipe it off, the Super-Shene or what ever sealer you used will protect the high areas from taking the die. I think the key is to wipe not rub you want to remove the hi-liter from the top but leave it in the tooled and cut areas. From Tandy’s site Eco-Flo Hi-Lite is water based, low V.O.C., light stain for use on natural veg-tanned tooling leather that will bring out and enhance cuts and impressions. Also you may want to check out the Dyes, Antiques, Stains, Glues, Waxes, Finishes and Conditioners forum. Doug

Does it have any marking on it.

That was very thoughtful and a great example of what people should do, an act of any kind is a 100 times better than a conversation about what could be done or what should have been done. Doug

Looks good how did you have do it.

Nice job I bet he likes them.
