    the snaps are an off the shelf piece from my local leather shop that I have altered a bit to suit my needs. Hope to be making my own snap caps soon. KK

    You can get 3M 90 at lowes. It's about $13. I like it because its a web spray (not a mist) no overspray. It's basically contact cement in a spray can. You spray both pieces, let it set for a couple of minutes and BAM! Just make sure you get the positioning right the first time cuz once its set, its set. KK

    This leather is pretty thick, i believe 5-6 oz. Its probly too thick, but its all i had at the time. The tooling is an inverted bevel on the lettering, and I kept it simple with the scroll work by using only my swivel knife. This wallet was real pretty before I put the !@#% black dye all over it. KK

    I posted this one before the great crash. But here it is again. The "pruf" (proof) is a play on the guys last name. It's been a while since i've done any tooling. I hate tooling letters. Let me know what ya'll think. Did I mention that I hate tooling letters? David is the King at that.

    Thanks Ed. On the graphics i mostly hand crank, but i'm getting better at running the topstitch on the binding.

    Ok, here is my first attempt at a tri-fold wallet (full size). Black is cow, inside and out. all of the brown stuff is pig. orange contrast stitching. The snaps used to be black, but a wire brush and some sandpaper gave me that distressed look I wanted. I kept the overlay simple as this was an experiment. Let me know what ya'll think.

    Thanks all. I use a Juki 1541 and use two diff. presser feet; one is the standard that came with the machine (its huge) and for the topstitch work, i use a small little half foot that i can see my needle with. Tomswede, If he doesnt like it, you'll be the first one I call.
