Nice work and welcome..........could you explain in detail with pictures how you made the barbed wire?

You can also use olive oil and it might not darken it as much.....worth a try anyway.........Works well from what I have been told by others

The Harley saddlebags with a horse on them gives me an idea..................nice work btw

show pictures please?

Plastic maybe?? Isn't that taking vegan to the extreme though? I mean even plastic is made from oil byproducts......which was originally an animal form at one time. Just saying!!

Excellent as usual Chancey...........if I only knew how to play one!!

I should have kept mine and then I would have one............Have you tried Northern Tool?

One of these days I am going to get out my airbrush and start trying it..................one of these days!!

I would suggest posting pictures when you are done!!

you can always use google translator to convert spanish to english. I would like the patterns if you would send them to me Mike

Thanks for posting this Johanna. I look forward to reading all you put on here.

You could try a rollaway cart with racks for the tools and drawers for the other items. Mainly get something that keeps it all in an organized fashion that works for you. I am a Travel Nurse and all my stuff goes in 3 plastic boxes till I get where I am going. Then the tools come out and the other stuff stays in boxes till I need it. I have one box for tools and dyes, another for books and patterns and a third for the leather. My sides stay in the shipping box until I need it also. Not a perfect situation but it works for now.

Have you tried the contact cement from Barge? I believe it also comes in a small container to help minimize the mess and has an applicator bottle. All I can think of of the top of my head. that is another great suggestion Beaverslayer!!!

LCI used to make it for Tandy.........but since they went eco friendly they stopped carrying it and it is now made and sold under the names Clear Lac and Wyosheen. That is the shrt version...lol

I use Clear Lac from Sheridan outfitters and I think Springfield leather carries something similar (WyoLac I think). Block out is water based and I haven't had any luck with it either. Also the Super Sheen is just a protectant for a top coat...not much good for resist in my experience.

Just remember that pig stretches a lot. Glue it down good.......other than that I can't think of anything........Post pics when done!!

I have Bill's number and I can't wait to meet him............good words my friend!!

I clicked on the link and got Ferdco's page??? Maybe wrong link?? try pendletonleathershow.com Mike

Nice!

Looking for somebody to teach me how to braid.........will be in Gallup, NM in a week and staying 3 months.

I thought there woulld finally be a decent use for super glue!! Thanks for the tip.

Dang women................always changing their mind.................lol

Just be careful and don't let her hear that................could cause trouble!
