  1. Sweet!!!! Very nice work on both.
  2. There are actually 2 on ebay right now. Just search clicker press.
  3. Nice bag. I may have to try my hand at making one for my wife.
  4. Tallbald you will most likely get many different answers to your question. I personally have several thousand tied up in a machine and tools, and I have a very long wish list as well....all this with the intention of supplementing my income when I retire. I would say that whatever the cost to keep you occupied, active, and happy is well worth it....and if/when you can make it pay that's icing on the cake. The cowboy should be a big help to you. I think that if I were in your position I would just buy the material, hardware, etc to make a couple of each item you are thinking of and see what sells the best. That would give you a better idea of the direction you should take. Just my 2 cents worth and wishing you the best of luck.
  5. Wow. All I can say is beautiful work on both.
  6. Ktomp, contact Black River Laser. Joyce and Jerry are a pleasure to work with and they can fix you up. http://www.blackriverlaser.com/
  7. That is a beautiful case.
  8. For what it's worth, I did a business card case a while back and used the eco flo smoke black high lighter color stain to "dye". I rubbed it on and then quickly wiped it off and it left it pretty much a dark grey/ very light black. I have never tried it but you may be able to dilute it and get a grey looking shade to your liking. A lot of folks on here don't like the eco flo products for the most part, including myself, but some of the eco flo products do work.
  9. Slick looking belt. I think I might have to make me one of these.
  10. Absolutely beautiful work.
  11. Very nice work.
  12. For those that airbrush neatsfoot oil, do you shoot it on straight or do you reduce it with anything? I know about reducing dyes and finishes but searched for an answer here on neatsfoot oil and couldn't find one, although the posts I did see it appeared the oil was straight. Thanks in advance.
  13. For what it's worth, I use rubber glue and poster board and have had very little peel off. What little that has I use my exacto knife and carefully "shave" the residue off. Just wondering and haven't tried it yet but maybe glue thinner might help remove it.
  14. Beautiful work. I really like the colors you chose.
  15. Very nice job. I really like the contrast of the raw edge against the black. About the only critique I can give is I would round or taper the strap ends and round the corners of the flap......but it's just my preference.
  16. Looks like it was cut and beveled with the beveller tilted on the toe.
  17. Very nice!
