Never cease to amaze me Tom!!! I'd like to have a look inside your mind one day and I'm quite confident I'd learn something! Keep it up!! Tom

Hello and welcome to the board Clair!! Nice boots! Bootmaking division is not the strongest part here but an occasionally pair surfaces now and then so it's a good thing with another pair aswell. Lots of other interesting stuff here. Tooling being the top category I think and lots of other stuff aswell. A very nice and friendly atmosphere and lots of people who is allways willing to share or give a hand. Coffee is allright but skip the donuts, they belong to the elderly and is prepped with formaldehyde Tom

Ohh lovely design on the front/back. I really like the border design with flower and beaautiful name logo. Someone mentioned the peacock and I can just agree, it is sooo good looking. Tom

Jäklans läckra syrran!!!! Love the details with the colours and that background is very nice!! Very nice design on the purse too. Tom

Thank you very much all!!! Firing up today....beer...women...rock n roll (well, heavy metal concert).... Tom

Hey you guys!!! Thanks alot!! First I'm invited to Swedish capitol Stockholm on Wednesday to celebrate with someone special and on Sunday I will have family and friends and have the "soft" celebration. But Wednesday...lots and lots and lots of heavy metal music, cold brews and whisky!!! Tom

Awsome, awsome!! Just look at those shotgunshells. I suspect thoose are tooled leather aswell!!!!!!!!! Tom

Hope you have a good one!!! We ain't getting younger but I've heard we're getting wiser (not sure I'd apply for that part about wiser;-) Keep up the excellent work!! Tom

The colours, the colours!!!!! We're gunna need to visit you whenever I can afford a colourgun for some targetpracticing;-) AND off course the expensive journey halfway around the globe!!! Mask looks great! Got me thinking about those ninja turtles a little bit (towards the mouth part). Outstanding crispness on this one!! Tom

Hello and welcome to the board! You sure will find lots of goodies in here and this is the most friendly community you'll find online aswell so don't hesitate to ask questions or post your work. We love pics!!! Tom

Try buffing it with sheepskin if it is too shiny. It will still be too shiny but the character of the shine will change to the better. I think the key is to work it up to a warm temperature. Cool wallet, skulls are nice;-) Tom

Hello and welcome to the board!! Not enough time is not so funny but I know what it feels like and I think most of us do. IF you're going to carve there is a simple practice I like to do that takes ten minutes. Draw some S curves and a few straight lines onto some scrap leather and carve one S-curve - one stright line - one S-curve...and so forth. If I've been away from carving a few weeks because of something, I do this one to before getting back onto subject to "wake up" my hands a little. Tom

Thanks for sharing Ray! Very beautiful stuff and not very far away from me. Maybe I go visit this sometime in the future. Tom

THIS IS GREAT from inside out! I just love it when you have that inlaid border interwoven with the florals. It gives it a whole new life. Tom

Hi and welcome to the board Tony! We have some really good saddlemakers here so I'm sure you'll find help with that and also you're gonna see some amazing stuff from some other leathermagicians here that you might wanna try. Many excellents carvers and toolers here aswell as people with special skills like braiding and sewing, heck we have it all here. We like pictures too! Tom

Hej (hello in Swedish) and welcome to the board Thipyuth!! Yes there is a lot of kind and friendly people here and we are always very happy to see new nationalitys here. I believe you are the first person from Thailand to be seen here. We like pictures alot so don't be afraid to post if you like. Also people are very helpful with anything so never hesitate to ask if you have any questions. Tom (from Sweden)

Hi Bebah! This is why we have the show off or critique my work section. Just post into the one of those two who suits your need and the forces behind the board will sort out the post to right category later on. If you wanna post questions about stuff or so then it'd be wise to post directly into whatever category that suits your need best to get the maximum interest from the right people when they use the view new posts function wich is what most people do. I'm no expert on sheridan but looks pretty good to me. Nice saddle too. Tom

Very cool wallet! The design is great and allways nice with a skull! Tom

Hey Ken!!! Good to see your back from the quiz..eh sandblasting I mean;-) Grab a few donuts, theese days we fill them with formaldehyde to help keep them aswell as ourselves from aging!!!! Good looking stool! I really like that neat little braid that I have been studying in Bruce Grants book and the motif looks just as good. Very beautiful with the naked leather with coloured details. That font is a nice one too. Tom

WOW Roo, this bracer is great!!! Love the way you have gotten the 3D appearance to it, very good!!! The snap closure with three separate limbs also appeals to me! Tom

Very good braidwork Tom!! You are a busy and avid crafter! I like that book too and have practice lace laying around but never seem to be able to get it done with more practices from the book. Tom
