I have a question about magnets, will they cause any problems such as data loss? Such as a case for a mp3 player or a cell phone data card. Jordan

Massed produced store bought bags go for 3 to 6 hundred in this area, most are run of the mill and not made very well, the higher priced usually have a logo and metal accents. So a set of handmade custom bags should bring a much better price. I have not had much success selling the bags I made, as it seems that a purchaser of an expensive new bike wants to buy the cheapest accessories they can. I found this true with holsters too. They spend over a grand on a pistol and put it on their belt in the cheapest holster they can find.

Thanks, the smoke black one looks much better in real time, just didn't photograph well, both were special order and personalized. Yes there is a thriving Christian contingent in the land of Zion, not much of a market with LDS practitioners as they have Franklin-Covey and other approved, or I should say preferred retailers that they buy from. Plenty of free spirits and Hippies that like the nostalgic wristbands too. Can't seem to make enough of those.

Yup pancake style with a flap'n'snap, haven't sold too many as most bikers around here already spent their money on a cheap mass produced Harley item.

Just name your arm guard the Calente Model, made for especially hot hunters.

Very nice work and it always pays to have a good "ourse in a clutch situation"

a collar for a lizard.

Haven't posted any photos lately as I have been busy with all kinds of stuff called life, some good, some bad, some indifferent, anyway finally got 2 bible cover orders and some more wrist bands done, well almost. I have to get started on a pair of sandals ordered last Saturday and talked with a fellow about a holster for his class 3 Mac 10, that will be a real brain teaser, why anyone would want to lug a weapon like that on their hip is a question for the ages. Up to five miles a day on my new bicycle and working on some bags for it, seems to be helping stabilize the diabetes, but I continue to loose weight, nuthin fits anymore LOL. My picture taking is sadly not one of my better jack of all trades, rather one of the master of none!

In the tight areas I did use a small pair of needle nose pliers to pull the needle through and the belt loop and flap are one piece that was sewn to the back before making the folds and sewing the sides.

Luke.,,, Sharpshooter, I would venture to guess you will probably get a call back, I am sure that someone on this forum knows someone who knows someone etc. that works there. If not then I guarantee another supplier would be happy to take your order. Good Luck

I don't know if you can tell by the photo but this is how I sewed a cigarette case, it has a loop on the back for a belt.

That surprises me, I would think that Europe would see distribution from Australia before the US, of course what the heck would I know about international business, I've only left the states by way of the military or a cruise ship, which by the way had much better food! They are very nice looking liners and I hope you can post some photos of the finished products if you are able to get some.

nice job, it is difficult to get stitching on a small band to look right, I think you got it.

I'm pretty good at deciphering physician's prescriptions, does that count?

I had read about that also. I would not want to go up against a full blown drug crazed anything even with a bearskin, imagine a screaming horde of hairy shapes emerging from the mist, must have given more than one heart attack to any village defender. Lets go Viking!

Like this?

Way cool, it is good to keep the pow mia issue out there so everyone remembers we still have American Heros that have not come home!

Your stuff is impressive, very clean looking designs, and really nice stitching. It looks to me like you may want to incorporate a weather flap of some kind on the bicycle bag things could get a little wet in poor riding conditions.

They all sold again, in spite of a wind disaster yesterday, gusts of 35-40 broke more slats of my canopy and it collapsed around me. Must have quite a sight. Guess I will be busy making more oak slats to fix it, no way am I spending more than I have to, luckily I am a jack of all trade and master of a few!

Thats a tough one, If the guitar is not real valuable glue or spray adhesive would be my guess. No removal after that without ruining the guitar though.

I bet it took him a long time to be able to do that. I can't use mine worth a crap.

Neighbor relations can be troubling at times, sounds like they have the Sunday affliction, many Christians catch it without even knowing it. The only cure is the long term therapy of learning how to carry the Sunday teachings into the rest of their week...Peace be with you and yours.

I use thin cardstock and rubber cement to keep the deformation to a minimum.

Excellent turnings, could double for a chess set in the off season.LOL Leather wrap would be a nice addition. Butt sewing is what I would try with one of those curved needles

Thanks much, 1&1/2 to 2 inch seems to be the width and double snaps sell better than grommet and thong ties, sold out again, could be the $8.00 price or nostalgia. Time and my cost is very little as usually the leather is scrap from other projects and maybe an hour to make one excluding drying time. I am getting a little tired (Bored) of the smaller items and look forward to more challenging projects. I just got a new beach cruiser bike and it will be a testbed for some new ideas for bags and such, and excersize too, I had forgotten how much fun riding a bike was, maybe I can write it off as a business expense. LOL
