You may be right. I hadn’t thought of that aspect. The croc was too thin to edge properly and for the price I agreed on, inlay was not possible, but I’ve just thought of an idea for next time. I could turn the edges by skiving super thin and it would look a lot better. Thanks for the comment!

Those are epic. I love them.
-
Lol! Thanks!

Here’s something new for me. Exotic overlay. I’m not sure how I feel about it. What do you think?
-
That’s just silly. Thank you.

Thanks everyone! I appreciate the comments. I tech this as a two day class as it’s much to involved to explain online. Sorry folks!

Whatever heavy I have on hand. These have lead and steel inside.

Thank you! I do use eco flo, but all of these are Fiebings.
-
Thank you. They are fun to make. However, the soft bags are more useful in some situations. It’s nice to have both.
-
Nothing wrong with those! I have some that are similar. Very useful.

Thread was purchased from Leatherartisanlab.com out of Spain. Don’t remember the brand but you can find it on the interwebz. Good stuff and tons of colors. And thank you! Thanks, Jay!

Thanks guys.

Thanks Chuck! All hand punched, with care. No machines here

Nah you aren’t dumb. I’ve seen some of those needle thingies and I can see why you might think it. I never had a use for them. I just stick all my needles to a neodymium magnet on my bench. Don’t have room or a need for a fancy needle holder

Thank you. These weights can be used for anything in your shop, including holding patterns and rulers etc.

Tape first. Also, soaking leather isn’t necessary. It’s a little overkill. Just wet it until water sits on the surface for a few seconds, then bag it.

A fine set of weighted coasters heading out to a friend in the USA.

Nice! I have been meaning to make some for my Granförs axes. You may have inspired me. -
There comes a time when I have to weigh my time vs the amount I can charge for an item. Also, repeatability comes into play, and for this job a stamp was the perfect solution.

Thanks everyone! It was my first time using a stamp and I have to say it was quite fiddly. I don’t have a shop press yet so it was quite a challenge. I actually bent the handle on my vice from hitting it with a hammer.

This was done with a stamp, not hand carved but I did crisp it up with a spoon
