  1. Clever! Lol! I am NOT amazed by this. But, I am still impressed. That guy can do anything with leather and he has mastered leather tooling. After that it's a matter of construction. It IS an impressive piece of work, and I am a huge fan. Will the braid at the top rub on the horse at all?
  2. That is a very well made pair of sandals, and they don't look like the bowling shoes that a lot of shoe schools have you make. Nice Job!
  3. Thats a sweet lookin rig. Nice job.
  4. Thanks Paul, I was one who asked you that. Its a slick technique and your makers stamp is as cool as they come!
  5. Sherk, as I'm sure you are aware, there a great many LW members who are from overseas and we don't discriminate on account of geographical location, and I believe a historical neighbor of yours solved the earth is not flat in the 1600's As for your bag, I'm sure it is unique in your location. In the many times I have been to Europe, I have not seen much in the way of Native American art. I'm glad our culture has made such a strong impression on you. It looks to be very well made, and its clear that your confidence is not an issue. Welcome to the forum! Mike
  6. Man! Mine should be here tomorrow! Can't wait...
  7. Hey Garry, sounds like you have a great skill set and we'd love to see some of your work! Welcome, Mike
  8. Hey Ken, welcome to LW.net! There is a long road between coasters and holsters, but you've found the right place to make the journey. Check out our holster section and never hesitate to ask questions. Mike
  9. Hey Mark! I hear you regarding losing an afternoon. I've lost entire weekends at my bench before. There are many great people here to learn from and the company is pretty good too! Welcome Mike

  16. I hear you man. It's just the corporate mindset we all have these days. If I'm ever famous or respected in this field, I want everyone to be able to come to my shop and sit and chat. You have to respect the time he took to talk to an unknown nooob like me. As for my ME tool list, well, its obscene, so I won't list it!
  17. So, I just ordered a variety of stamps from Barry King and the guy I was talking to was extremely knowledgable and very helpful. I got a bunch of the things I need and while we were closing out the transaction I asked who I was speaking with. Turns out it was Barry himself! I don't know why I expected it to be someone else, but I was pleasantly surprised and the service was outstanding! Barry listened to what I was trying to do, and was able to guide me to the tools I need and he was able to explain WHY i need them in order of importance, AND work with my budget. I highly recommend you give him a call if you want to purchase high quality tools and deal with a first rate company! Mike .
  18. I am impressed!
  19. So not helpful at all. Sorry the only other option I can think of is skiving, but ray skin is already thin and I don't know that you CAN skive it.
  20. ray skin is really tough. You might have to poke the edges with so me sharp tools like a pick set. Or, you could try and leave a relatively large but deep channel for the skin so its easier to get in but wont come out. That's a tough dilemma.
  21. Is that a dog tag?
  22. What is the piece that you're trying to tuck it under? Its hard to answer without a bit more detail or bigger pics.
  23. Bunny, a more consistent way to reduce the glare on your pics is to use a light box while shooting. This way, you wont have to frost your metal attachments prior to pics, nor will you have a problem with thawing
  24. Paul, if you haven't had your answer's yet, or if you're in the Chicago burbs and dont want to deal with the city, let me know. Mike
  25. looking good! Nice clean designs, good execution. Now tidy up the details!
