    I have not seen that panel treatment before. It really works well.

    Belt Bag/Hip Bag. I made this from templates and instructions from Fischer Workshops. First attempt at anything like this. Will call this a prototype and see what I can improve on the second go around. First off this leather is really not very nice so the edges are not crisp at all. But on wards!

    The number system is wacky. Just make sure that the package is marked 002. And it is correct.

    Just ordered one, lets see....

    Thanks for the advice.

    Very cool. Going to take a shot at also.

    I am using some "found" leather that is gosh been around for 15 years. Funny I did not notice the cracking till I took the pics. I want to use this leather up though. So I am trying to slather on a bunch of neetsfoot oil before any hard bending. I like it, but maybe not politically correct these days. OH well............

    Both great. I like the second one. Simple but effective design.

    I bought one as well and really like it. I am still playing around with camera settings to try to get it optimized.

    Just finished this from a pattern from Fischer Workshops. He has great content on You Tube and really nice patterns and templates.

    I bought some of the thread similar to the Amazon post as above. I make mainly small pouches and knife sheaths. The stuff works perfectly fine in my opinion.

    This is the same method I use. Always seems like good results. I like the final with beeswax, it softens and blends the color of the edges in my opinion.

    Started also using the JJ 002 and what a huge difference. I too made the mistake at first of buying the JJ #2 size!

    Access to the web site is also now blocked from Thailand. I tried to email customer service but no response.

    Really nice.

    Really nice job.

    My opinion is that the Tandy pro tools are really quite nice and at the current sale price they are a real bargain.

    Thanks for the comments Brian. I am still having a heck of a time with the basket weave. Keeping straight and consistent depth ect. But this attempt was better then most! Will leave a little more edge width next time. I have seem the camo stamp done on this before. But actually I forgot about it.

    Tried something different with this one:

    Yes some people might/could use it for a thigh tie. This sheath has a dangler carry so I guess if one was concerned about being stealthy a thigh tie could be employed. Truthfully for me for the most part, I just like the way it looks.

    Surface dye. Not really as black as I would like it but looks OK after oil and wax. It is photographed on a sanded brown dyed stingray skin.

    I usually apply the resolene on the inside of my knife sheaths and then let dry and then stitch. For the outside a few coats (or several) of neetsfoot oil followed by Aussie Leather balm, buff out and that's it. Seems to give a nice finish. The resolene on the inside, I have no idea, it is just something I saw somebody doing and I thought it made sense so I stuck with that routine.

    Finished with cow hide, pig skin lining, some slight stamping and a dangler carry. Fiebings Pro Black dye.

    I have used tight bond III wood glue, it is waterproof and it goes on easy, but does take some drying time. But the stuff really works well and is indeed fairly waterproof. I use this sometimes for lining knife and tool sheaths.

    The one with the head sticking out is cool, and well a little creepy as well ha....
