Hey guys, just ordered the Leather Factory E-Z Beginner Kit at http://www.amazon.com/Leather-Factory-E-Z-To-Do-Leathercraft/dp/B00114RDZY/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1339103185&sr=8-2
Completed my first project, the key chain. :-P I accidentally messed up the rivet when I didn't notice it slipped out and I hammered it, but luckily it fit back in and still managed to work fine. The all in one was a little darker than I wanted, and it feels like the stamp thing slips a tiny bit, but hey I am still learning.
I purchased a little leather brander from a feed store a couple of years ago and have some experience branding, but only using letters and designs, not the pen deal. But otherwise making stuff, stamping, sewing, dyeing etc, I am brand spankin' new to.
I do hunt and skin, so my future goals are to be able to make stuff with my pelts. I hope to learn from some of you more experience leatherworkers out there!
