Exceptional indeed ! I'm impressed with top edges of the pockets, and your seemingly clean stitching. although a bit thick for my taste. Nice work though ---Wild Bill46

I think this is an Ingenious idea, Thanx for sharing --- Wild Bill46

Nicest looking Pool cue case I have seen, nice work ! How was the velvet looking material to work with ? ---- Wild Bill46

Beautiful is a complete word for your craftsmanship, As always Chief Great looking projects. --- Wild Bill46

I have basically the same idea for a friend for Christmas ! At one point he gave me the wooden box to find someone to give it to, Now, I'm making it into a kind of jewelry box to keep his Guitar, Dobro Bass, picks in. I intend to tool a leather top, sand the box before finishing it off. I thought about using either velvet or felt to do the interior ! Any thoughts out there ? --- Wild Bill46 and so forth

I'm just ass stunned as these other fine craft people, Not sure I have an adaquit word for this project It is defanately beautiful workmanship ! ------- Wild Bill46

Exceptional tooling, I like ! --- Wild Bill46

Exceptional tooling for a newbee, you have onward talent for sure ! ------------- Wild Bill46

I think I may have seen same video some time ago," Eller bros" ? maybe ? And the padding was most likely applied for creature comfort, not as a sealant ? then again, Maybe it was to be an overlay , the reason for gluing ? You can make new holes for new seat cover stitching. (or very carefully align old holes, hard to align real well) movement, stretching etc. Once your pattern is as you desire, and tooling finished if any desired, I would apply any dying, staining, coloring, if wanted, and then apply any jeweling, dots, decorative stitching/lacing etc. It can then be Stitched together making sure it fitted as you go. I'm sure there are other ways of doing this, Others whom have more experience might do it completely different.. but this is what I think I would do if confronted with this myself. Hope this helps in some way. Good luck ! Wild Bill46
