Dude, sweet armor ^_^

Hello, I, too, am new to this forum, though it looks promising thus far ^_^ I have been working with leather off and on for a few years (three, I think). Unfortunately I don't know anyone else who works with leather around my area, so I've pretty much taught myself via analyzing pictures of completed products that I wished to replicate (thus my slow advancement). I am interested predominantly in BDSM-oriented leatherworking, though other types are also helpful in terms of overall improvement. Also, I have a tendency to be somewhat verbose, and I hope that you will overlook that as I'm really (I think) I fairly nice person once you get past the aloof bearing I seem to ooze : ( I hope to get to know and get along with everyone here ^_^

First off, those are indeed quite astounding. I hope that I am able to make such beautiful things someday (I like the collars in particular ^_^). I actually have two questions for you, if you have the time to answer them: 1) How long have you been doing leatherwork? 2) What is the red inner layer on those cuffs/how is it installed? It looks really amazing, and I have seen it on many professional retail sites, but I have not the slightest idea of how to go about mimicking it.
