      Hoping to start getting the room ready soon. Have to get the rest of the house and some fencing done before im allowed to work on the leather room.

    Moving in to a new house and will have my own room to set up an actual leather working table. It will be so nice not to work at the kitchen table.

    Got to love it when you spill black dye all over the table.

      The most fun however, is when you spill black dye all over the table AND the project!! You have no idea how much fun that is. Better than dancin' barefooted in a red ant pile...LOL

      I'm convinced, if you want to get rich, come up with a bottle that pours dye cleanly without dripping or spilling.

      Yes a good way to pour dye would be nice.

      And luckily I didn't spill the dye on the other project I was working on. The belt I was dying was black. I had a Wallet that I am dying brown on the other side of the table. The dye only got the table

    The joys of punching holes in 13oz saddle skirting by hand.

      :D soap up your punch, make sure it's sharp... hold your mouth right and smack it hard. :)

      When I get sick and tired of punching holes, I sharpen up the edge of an appropriate sized piece of steel tubing on a sander, put the tubing in my battery drill, and continue to punch using the trigger.

      Thanks for the tips. I will keep that in mind the next time. Luckly it was only 12 holes
