Thanks North and Cyber. I am buying some leather today and scraps so I can practice. I will use the kits to get patterns like you all suggested.

I am a 2 week newbie. I try to practise at least a little everyday because I really want to learn how to make things like my grandfather use too when I was a kid. My question is this. Would buying kits and making them be better than buying leather and cutting everything needed myself to begin with? I have lots of patterns and am in the progress of finishing off my own wallet that I cut out all the peices myself and assembled myself. Which would be the best choice for a beginner? Sorry if this was asked before, I dont mean to put repeat questions up on the board. Thanks Gabriel

Thanks King.

Hello everyone. I just started learning about 2 weeks ago even though I've been around leatherwork almost my whole life. My grandfather made and sold leather stuff his whole life. He always asked me if I wanted to learn and being a young kid I always said "maybe later". He has long since passed away and its about 20 years later, figured its time to start learning. I included a couple pics of my first project. Hope you like. Gabriel

If you still have them available, I would like them too. aguilerag89@yahoo.com thanks
