My pans are custom made for each bike:) This one was handed to me by the owner.... I love it when that happens! Already made by him specifically for this frame...it is getting a hydraulic shock mount:) For padding I use a black closed cell foam. It is dense but it still has some bounce. It is about 1" THICK. They use the same stuff to insulate pipes in the far north for winter. I buy it by the Sq. Meter..60€per sq mtr.

PURE HOG POWER!!!!!!! HERE IS THE NEWEST SEAT FOR A NEWLY REBUILT OL' SHOVEL. BIKE IS STILL IN PAINT...UPLOAD PICS AS SOON AS THE BIKE IS DONE! LEATHER BOTTOM WICH I WILL GET PICS OF WHEN IT IS DONE, 19HR...FROM MAKING THE ORIGINAL DRAWING TO THE POINT IT IS NOW:) JUST NEED TO LACE IT UP AND CALL IT A DAY:)

I think you need to reed the rules again:) You can use a lot of other things that are necessary to work the leather to prepare you for the actual work:) A knife if pretty mandatory.... Unless you're a LASER PERSON!

I gave you some already:) Did you miss my post??? Scroll up the page:) Just save the image it should be just right already:)

That is funny! LOL It would look pretty classic with dyes...

I like all the pieces that is cool! I would have just stained it no paints...but that is me:)

Is that a wallet????? COOL SHAPE! Tiki Steam Punk??? That is a strange combo for sure! hahaha It is tiki on the inside but on the outside it is all hardcore steam punk... You have my attention! Or is that just basic design and you where showing different options? I get that...and if your just being weird that is OK TO!!!!!!!!! hahahaha lololol

I just had Lucky 7 on the brain you are soooooooo right:)

hahahahaha Maybe your right...there might be a few closet Samhain fans out there!...hahahaha

oh no!!!!!!!!I think this one is going to be a ................................................................................................. .......well I'll leave ya hanging...LMFAO!

Think again guy! I am just as swift with the old hammer style 2:) MUHAHAHAHA I was a little rusty...but I have been practicing:) EVLLH!!!!!

YES:) Tiki + Flower or Tree:) (for Sly) I see your wheels turning already!!!!! They are always a challenge and every one is different all the time:) And I hate doing flowers! So I out that in there as well cause I need to work on those! And they myth is that orchids in a ladies ear attracts the Tiki Gods:)

Ya the extensions for the letter handle is key, it enables you to rock the letters front /back side to side better and get a much deeper impression...only problem is that the marks of the letter for what is top and bottom will disappear over time so just take some nail polish and mark the bottom towards you so you know the letter is facing the proper direction:) I have made up side down letters a few times...it is very frustrating!!!!!!!! The thing about stamping the letters is ya it is generic but sometimes it is more than good enough for some jobs. I have hand cut 15 club belts fonts at a time and I wish I would have talked them into stamps, but they get what they want and pay for. Plus the thing about the stamps is you have a nice trough for the color to pool into. As you can see in my close up the red pools real nice and you can be a bit more speedy and sloppy and it will just fall into the proper valley. All in all a belt like that takes me about 4-5 hours so if you are in that realm your are cookin' pretty good and keep up the pace! Put on some Samhain and rock that sh*t out! Or some Sixgun Republic:) hahaha;) EVEN BETTER! TTYL8R!
