Very good advice Chuck or you could get into jack boots for the new regime ya!

looks really good to me

Those are beautiful nice job!

yes that is priceless I understand completely ! as I have similar artifacts from my artist Daughter and now school teacher .

Nice job looks cool to all i can say is that thing on me and the watch would be broke in 5 mins or even less I bought an old pocket watch in mint condition for 400 bucks had it less than one day and it now may be good for part's asked a Jeweler if he could fix it for me he said yes it would cost around 400 to fix it good luck with that . er if he could

very cool !

Nice job on that I like the use of the meander stamp I would not have thought of that looks cool that sure is an up close and personal rig wow .

that's a very fine job you are doing it's a real beauty .

LOL that's what it sounds like.

I would like to see yours also, my rolls won't be done until some time in January.

I use half bees wax and half brewers pitch mix it by hand in a small ball and that's it small amount last a long time.

Nice looking bag can see why they want more.

Sorry not one roll, three rolls.

I'm making one right now for my woodworking chisels with 4oz oil tan it's my intention to have the leather go over each handle rather than just stitching it flat like a cloth roll this makes the problem of closing the bottom of each chisel space so at the bottom of each space i will leave a small tab of leather in the center kind of like a jock strap sorry but this explains it best that small tab is part of the face it will go back and be stitched down it's a bit more work but i think it will work best the reason for doing this leather is not like cloth I think things will just fit better this way.

Really beautiful work the only thing I see is the edges of the handle should be finished but other than that wow what a job!

Wow those look great love that color.

Nice job hand made and made well what could be better.

Welcome from Boston Mass

Nice work I"M sure he will really appreciate the fine work from a friend.

It is

even though they are in the box and all that I still don't like the idea of that bump on the inside LOL

I struggle with it also so I make these shot shell cases for trap so on the back where the leather turns over to make the belt loop I fasten it with two copper rivets and like you say smooth side out to the most wear LOL that leaves the nice bump on the inside against the primers of the shotgun shells ok so in this case smooth side in the box! LOL

Not contact cement! " rubber cement ". IMHO

Very nice cover someone is going to be very happy with that.
