Welcome Duane. Great website. I'm gonna have to order one of those t-shirts! Regards, Daryl

Thanks for the compliment. I created this piece with alot of background...just a change of pace. This is just plain wickett & craig russett skirting leather with no additives. I let the sun do the coloring for me. About the only thing I use on my leather is either olive or neatsfoot oil. Again, thanks for the compliment. Daryl

Steve, I really like it. What did you use for the background? Blends in perfect. Congrats! Daryl -
Be gentle folks! Still working on this bible cover. (It might take a few secs to download. I put the camera on "hair on a gnat's *** setting".) Regards, Daryl

Photgraphing my leather has been a long going battle. Purchased a Canon today and I'm like a kid in a candy store.

Ed, Here is the logo with different wording. My opinion is to keep logos as simple as possible.....not too cluttered. Yes, I do laser into leather. I'm currently lasering a maker stamp, but as soon as it finishes, I will laser the attached logo into leather and post it for you. Hope this helps you. Regards, Daryl

My first complete Work
dbarleather replied to TheTrooper's topic in Satchels, Luggage and Briefcases
Beautiful work! Looks like it will hold up great. Make sure you keep it around so that you can look back at it in 5-10 years, I bet it will make you smile. Congratulations! -
David, Yes, the back of the leather does have a sticky texture to it. However, most people usually line the flesh side of the leather....ie I line my checkbook covers with pigskin.

Dave, I personally use exposed x-ray film. I rough up the film and back of my leather to insure good contact, then I spray 3M multipurpose adhesive on the back of my leather and attach. I'll put a piece of marble on top of the leather and let it dry for a couple hours before I case my leather. Works for me.....good luck
