That is a real beauty. Braid turned out nice.

That is a beauty. The couple will treasure for many years.

Looks great!

Wow! nice work there Bob!!

Those are some great looking reins. Nice job.

That is a very beautiful saddle. You have a right to be proud of it.

Beautiful work Chief. I also like the looks of lacing and I enjoy lacing. The carving on the hand bag is done very nicely.

Very nice work on those Rayan.

Halitech, You are welcome to use any of my posts for your own use in making leather products. I will say, however, that the leather folder I posted is a bit to wide to fit in some of my shirt pockets. I am not sure that I could have made it any smaller and fit my note book in it.

Looks like you did a fine job. Nice.

Congratulations on your new machine!!! Those folders look really nice. A machine has been non my wish list for quite a while and it looks like it will still be a while before I can purchase one. I'm happy for you.

Nice job on that awl. Wood turning is fun too and I have several leather tools I want to make with my lathe as soon as I get the time.

Tip, Thanks for the nice comments. The liner and inside pockets are from 2-3 ounce leather the back is 4-5 ounce. I dyed the inside with Fiebings mix of Saddle Tan and Light Brown Oil dye.

That is a nice bag. You do beautiful work.

Nice work there Jimbob.

Thank you Jimbob.

That is very, very nice. Beautiful!!!

Thanks Bob. I do believe it will serve me well.

Thanks for the nice comments WildBill and Monica.

Please post them when you do. I enjoy seeing what you are making.

Thanks Chris. I certainly enjoyed doing it and now I am going to enjoy using it.

Thanks for the nice words Chief. I am about to start on a wallet and I will learn the Mexican Basket Weave on it for sure.

I have carried a memo book and business cards for years and finally got around to making something to carry them in. I did have a bit of trouble with making my lacing look good at the end/beginning. I usually do holsters and never have to meet the lace at the starting point. I'll have to practice on this if I do any more of these or any wallets. I dyed the leather a light brown and then antiqued it with a dark brown dye from Tandy that I bought years ago. I finished it with Tan Kote then laced it and gave it a second light coat of Tan Kote. of The lace is "RealleatheR" calf lace that I bought from Weaver, and I am impressed with it. The cost is especially impressive as it is about half the cost of kangaroo lace. Comments and critiques are welcome.

Very nice work. I really like the stitching pattern of the lace. I must make myself take the time to learn to do that.

Looks like a good design. Do you wear it on your belt so that the flap snaps up so when it is unsnapped it drops into your hand? or do you wear it the other way so you need to pick it out of the pouch after unsnapping? Just wondering.
