  1. Mine arrived in two days. LOL. But I'm in Atlanta, so it didn't have to go far.
  2. I like your tooling style.
  3. Cool. I'm always impressed when people get elephant to work. I have a few scraps, and I can't even CUT them straight.
  4. Very cool! I've seen one of these as a small charm at one point or other. I love the braiding.
  5. If I recall correctly what you made before (I can't find it), I do think it's a big improvement.
  6. Wow, these are super cool. I saved them in my favorites folder. Great job on the photography, as well.
  7. Cool, Buttons. A murse or something for a girl who likes things a little less frilly.
  8. Yes, last time I made lined strap (for a bag), I used 3 oz. veg tanned for the lining. I've also used pig skin, but I don't like the texture very much.
  9. Cool, TRH. I like the airbrushing. Chris, I'm bad - I didn't end up making one of these. I started thinking the center of this design really needed support, like this one by dextannery. or it would be hard to close it without damaging the glasses. So instead I made several based on Norman Cahn's design: You should look through dextannery's shop. There are some pretty cool ideas for covering large car keys.
  10. Very nice, Yin!
  11. I've had trouble with wrinkling when I put two pieces of the same leather together. Usually only with latigo, though. It's pretty stiff. I ended up using a softer leather to back it up.
  12. Dan, those are super cool. I'm jealous - I want my own all leather luggage. Those are not trivial projects, either.
  13. Very nice! I love the tooling, and it must have been nerve-wracking making that cut or groove through the dye and finish.
  14. This is a super-cool tutorial, and your books are awesome. Thank you for posting it!
  15. This is looking great, Yin!
  16. LOL, you guys....
  17. Wow, that's a fantastic bag. I can't believe the color came out so well. It looks like pre-dyed Horween leather or something. I really enjoyed the pictures of your process as well. I'm still looking through it, but I've already seen some helpful ideas.
  18. Oops, there might be intellectual property problems with copying this design. My bad. However, here are a few other similar items from google images:
  19. It's beautiful, Huns. Thanks for sharing the pictures!
  20. Ditto TinkerTailor- I would have been happy with the box. I am totally jealous of your find.
  21. What...?! Awesome.
  22. Cool, that looks like a fun project! I've never made one - maybe someday.
