sstreun

i got the sandblaster from northern tool for like nine dollars its the same size of the airbush but with the hopper on top side, stain the leather first then blast away, the dark brown mustang oiled leather looks cool too

was tired of working on leather for everyone else so i was taking a break looking around the room and seen my small sand blaster that i eched glass with and look what happened.

wife wanted a clutch purse and i thought the horse butt stained would be awesome

i have the same as the second one with a screw in blade and was told it was an osborne, i cleaned the blade and sharpened the edge and to me its the best knife i have very smooth

great find at an estate sale very cheap 115 tolls and 85 of which i didnt have

no um saying i always mess up the decorative cuts even after i practice prior to doing but will look good on the scrap leather but not so good on the work itself, but this is one of the better ones, i trashed two just like it cause i didnt like them but thanks for the comment it helps me anyway

well i smashed my hand bad enough that i cant do any leather work but healing quick and trying dont think i can post the pic's here lol so i will post these that i finished with mesquite frame i made, i practice on scrap before i attempt the decrative cuts but guess i get nervous because i know im gonna mess it up

this knife was given to me and i ran it down the strop couple of times and it is awesome to cut with and sharp, to me its the best knife out of 4 that i have 76 year old guy gave it to me and used it back in his high school years guess back then it was quality and not quantity

Ok ok ok got it

Thanks guys i do just about anything i can the more u do the better you get right,yea and the pink was special order lol not a pink kinda guy
