  1. You've done it again eh? another awesome saddle
  2. Wow...
  3. They would have less leverage than a pair of nippers but yes that would work too, same concept.
  4. They cost a bit too much just to use them on metal, so you probably would want to get some old ones from a farrier
  5. Old hoof trimming nippers may also work with those, a saddle maker I know uses them on regular rivets.
  6. Now that is a sweet idea, nice bag too the light would help keep your hands and the leather intact too I bet
  7. Well I never was good at roses so maybe I'll just shut up now, since I'm being of no help whatsoever:)
  8. There see someone has to point out what's wrong before is I see it
  9. Wow. Thats the best first attempt I've ever seen! Thats REALLY good. (Mine were way worse) Keep it up and you'll be a pro in no time (which will be way ahead of me) I'm not much of an authority in leatherwork because I'm not near being a pro but I've seen a lot of the professional's stuff online
  10. Old cowboy and awesome saddle maker in southern Alberta, near Manyberries. Worked at Douglas Lake Ranch and later at the Gang Ranch. His saddles are extremely comfortable, which is probably because he spent most of his life in one:) so he knows how to make them. He has saddles booked for 2016! Anyway I was just wondering if you'd heard of him because you're in Canada and make saddles and from se of your pics it looked like you could be in AB
  11. Hey Rdl, have you ever heard of Terry Milliken?
  12. Welcome fellow Saskatchewanian! You will without a doubt learn many things on this forum.

    That's a nice riggin, rdl
  14. The cat is the bait?
  15. Ah yes, that makes sense, thanks.
  16. I have no idea what IWB is... haha
  17. Thank you, I might just try for a similar handle on my knife, once I get a bit of brass...
  18. Ok never mind that I think that is the same knife that is on your site, am I correct?
  19. Very nice, I did start making a knife last year but I didn't get far, it was an old file as well. That is an interesting design you have on that sheath. What does the blade on that knife look like, I was inspired by the handle and I think I have a knife that is similar...
  20. Hey, that is a cool looking knife, did you make it?
  21. Make that three Canadians! WHERE ARE YOU GUYS?!?!
  22. Aha, there what did I tell you, there is a pro whith some very good information on scabbards.
  23. That's some nice work you've got there, I wouldn't call that beginner It says on the BlueGuns site there are two distributors in the UK, I am not sure if that is what you are looking for but those are used in holster making a lot. I don't know for sure but you may be able to use airsoft guns as well... Hopefully some of the pros will come on here soon.
  24. Mind if I steal a few ideas off this sheath style? You have some great colour on that sheath!
