  1. Nicely done! That will definitely keep your arm from getting beat up!
  2. That is awesome! I like how that looks. Is the elephant hide different to work with than say veg tan? If it is different, in what ways is it different? I've never done anything different than cow hide.
  3. Nice! I love the movie too! Great job!
  4. Looks really good and the only critique I have is the same as Bruce H. That would add that final touch needed to make it really shine.
  5. That is awesome looking. I like it a lot. May I ask why you finished the edges on the gussets but did not finish/dye the edges on the flap? Was that the look you were going for?
  6. I like using Wyo Sheen which you can get from Sheridan Leather. Like everybody else said, apply 1-2 coats and let it dry really well. I let mine dry over night. Then I use an antique dye. I like Fiebing's antique paste. It gets in the cuts, tooling, and grooves very nicely. It also comes off the raised edges well. I've attached a picture of a wallet I just did with Fiebing's mahogany antique paste.
  7. Awesome! Welcome to the forum!
  8. That's awesome. Thanks for sharing the pictures of your project as you moved along with it!
  9. Beautiful wallet! Nice clean work. The stitching is awesome. Great work.
  10. Woohoo! I've been out looking before for finds like that and so far I've come up empty handed. I will keep looking though!
  11. That's awesome work!
  12. I like it! That is great work.
  13. Wow! That is nicely done. The only thing I would suggest is to dead end your lines at the edge of your makers stamp. Don't have the lines go through the makers stamp. Overall, nicely done. Great work!
  14. Nicely done. That silver buckle definitely complements the brown belt and makes it stand out.
  15. Thanks for the nice comments. ARFFGuy, I used Tandy's shearling. It's the stuff they use to put on the bottom of saddles. It's really nice because it protects my rifle really well and nothing gets snagged when I put the rifle in the case and pull it out. Capsterdog, I used Craftool A104 and A114 for the background.
  16. Huns, that is awesome! Great work! Thanks for sharing your in progress photos too.
