Your leatherwork looks great!! I must admit that i'm not a big fan from spiders on motorcylcle seats but thats just me. They look great and i'm a big fan of your basket wave seat!! I made myself a repro bates, with vertical rolls. I think the sadlle is to high now and i will to do it over with tool leather, you work inspired me!! keep up the good work!! chico

Very nice work!! everything looks very clean and simple but the grade of quality seems very high!! You have a new fan, keep on posting!! Chico

Thanks Bluesman, I'm sure i will learn allot here!! Thank you for the warm welcome and i hope we can share some ideas. Chico

Hy to all, My name is Nico but some friends call me Chico as you can see on my avatar. I live in Belgium, near Antwerp and Brussels (that is because Belgium is such a small country )and i'm pretty new to leatherwork, i started practice one year ago. A couple years ago, i followed a course to learn uphollstery (car seats) but i didn't learn what i was expecting, so after a while i went to a open house in a craft school and started a course handbags and purses to learn how to stitch properly. Never heard before about "tooling leather" but my teacher showed me some things he have made and i whas bitten!! I'm into the kustom scene (traditional hotrods and bikes) and most of my work so far is related to this scene. I hope you like it but offcourse feel free to comment, good or bad...i can handle that!! regards Chico
