  1. Now that's a belt! Great job Ran, your BIL is going to love it.
  2. Sublime work, simply stunning!
  3. Just to echo the great advice about giving your dyes and finish enough time to dry. Do not rush it! On the projects I've worked on I give the dye and/or resolene at least 24 hours to dry between coats. I can report no dye rub off or gummy resolene finishes so far!
  4. I too appreciate the time and effort in making the videos. They are a valuable resource for the leather-working community! Thanks.
  5. Now that is a test!
  6. I really like the way the alligator straps contrast against the floral tooling. Excellent!
  7. Christmas came early for someone. Enjoy it!
  8. I ordered a Barry King maul and cannot wait to receive it!

      I bought a 24 ounce and it is like a piece of art work.

  9. Very nice job on it.
  10. From the album: Triangle coin holder

    Nothing exciting here..just a couple of rivets..

    I hate to throw scrap leather away so it's project time..

    Not bad for a first try. I'd modify the pattern a bit for a second one.

    I used scrap from a vinegaroon test so this explains the greenish/grey color!
  14. There is no place I know of in NYC but if you are ever in Mineola there is http://www.onestopcandle.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=CTGY&Category_Code=LWS
  15. I'm of the "use it and let it age naturally" school too. Steve McQueen's jackets didn't look the way they did because he sat around with sandpaper and steel wool scrubbing his outfit!
  16. Great advice. Buffing the surface is an essential step in the process!
  17. Perhaps an additional "washer" made of leather to take up the space?
  18. As a total noob at hand-stitching my work benefits from not seeing those sloppy stitches! I agree contrasting thread looks good and I'd hope to one day incorporate it into my projects.
  19. I recently purchased Tiger Tread from that seller. Based on the great reviews TT receives I am looking forward to trying it!
  20. SouthernCross, I've not made a holster and only used their #207 & 277 which appears thin for one. Seems like you'd need one of their larger options. Maybe someone who has used their larger threads will reply.
  21. I grew to hate the Tandy thread. Currently I am using and enjoy using this- http://www.thethreadexchange.com/miva/merchant.mvc?Screen=CTGY&Store_Code=TTE&Category_Code=waxed-thread
