  1. For a simple gusset bag, try a leather tote style. There is an oiled leather one in my gallery
  2. This is really great stuff!! Beautiful wallets, impressed you are hand stitching most things You gotta tell us the Mitt Romney story that goes with the last pic
  3. You did well both cost wise and tool wise as those stamps and hand tools are likely old and still well made
  4. This is one of my favorite threads.....just love seeing other peoples work spaces
  5. I think you did a great job Good stitching and contrast, nice leather selection, love the copper rivets Overall a really great start to bag making
  6. I think you are courageous to post and ask for critique, especially on something so hard. I was trying to make a St Patrick's Day lapel out of leather and totally muffed it up. I won't show it to my dog! I think the "DB " comment was someone signing their initials Cheers
  7. This is a TOUGH subject to carve and paint. Keep plugging away at it and improving. Those do look like penises in the original as well....just weird design (I know its not yours) I would call that a coat of d!@*s instead of a coat of arms
  8. That is a gorgeous holster BM
  9. Yes, I like the pebble pattern of the leather the stained areas bring out. Maybe we don't give Tandy enough credit some times. Do you do your own bag designs and patterns as well?? Chuck some stuff into your gallery and lets see
  10. So you used your own leather and used the kit as templates?? That is what I would do as well
  11. Thanks for all of this, had no idea it existed. If you can turn out custom stamps for projects it doesn't matter how long they last....just make another. I am sure I paid more for an early laser printer in the office I've been pondering a laser to make images....use them at work but the pricing for any industry is ridiculous.
  12. great idea, like to see more of the machinery you are using to make this
  13. I like it We had a big discussion about this a while ago http://leatherworker.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=45368&hl=
  14. WOW.....absolutely blown away by this

    nice looking bag very solid!
  16. This is a good start for basic technique videos from Tandy Leather "http://www.tandyleatherfactory.ca/en-cad/en-cad/Leathercraft-Videos.aspx"
  17. So true. I was warned that Berners (Bernese Mountain Dogs) work their way into your heart...just didn't think it would be so fast. We have had her one week and I am so happy she is here. Melts my heart when she rolls on her back and wants a tummy rub..while chewing on my sleeve.
  18. Make sure you post some pictures of your project for us to see...maybe even some design and work in progress stuff. It is cool seeing how others attack a project on their own and it sounds great!
  19. Nice sheath Cool texture contrasts in your photos.....very professional looking
  20. That's a cool story. It is amazing how much scent can generate memories and emotions. You can be in a busy public place and a girl with THAT perfume walks past and whammo those memories flood back
  21. first time, this is amazing work!!!
  22. There is so much to learn on here from some amazing artists Take some time and look through the site, galleries, technique threads Keep plugging away at it!
  23. Looks great, very simple and classic I bet it outlasts the i Pad
  24. That is a lovely machine..me likeeeee
  25. Springfield Leather order came today. It is like Christmas all over. Now I need to find some time.

      How much of a discount do you get with their gold club? I was just on their site and registered. I pay 150.00 a year to get elite prices with Tandy and it looks like springfield is wayyyy better on their membership. They also price match I think I read?

      BUT Tandy is like an hour from me and I can pick out my leather also. Last time I ordered leather on line I got a hide with more bug bites and scratches on it than the tree outside.
