Having gone through the immigration process myself sometime back I would like provide you this link http://www.ontarioimmigration.ca/en/pnp/OI_PNPWORKERS.html. This position or profession doesn't qualify for federal nor provincial immigration. It would be easier to hire a Mexican or American for the peak month rather than hiring a foreign worker. Best of luck filling the position.

Joel, read these: http://leatherworker.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=20414&hl=wallet http://leatherworker.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=55273&hl=wallet http://leatherworker.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=58551&hl=wallet If non of those are helping you any then I'm having at least two or three in my pattern board on Pinterest here https://www.pinterest.com/riding1493/cutting-patterns/ This is my favorite pattern though: Scale to whatever you feel happy with. My dimensions are 19 to 19.7 cm for the overall length. This is what it can look like. Just play around with it. http://oldmillleathercrafts.thewesternsource.com/biker-wallets/

I wonder how many more are going to PM him and then post that they've sent a PM. His toolbar must be all red... Oh forgot to mention, I was the first to send a PM but thought he'd be smart enough to notice the red flag and the pop-up message.

Nothing attached...

Found those two thingies https://www.pinterest.com/pin/557461260105962328/ https://www.pinterest.com/pin/190277152983697591/ Reminds me a bit on a fiadora knot. Btw. it looks good if you use 8 strands and make a 4 strand braid. Like this: https://www.pinterest.com/pin/557461260105962421/ Or just single, like this: https://www.pinterest.com/pin/557461260105962420/ Here's a nice idea for a key fob and some other braids http://stormdrane.blogspot.de/2010_10_01_archive.html Don't dare to ask me how it's being done though . I would have to pull out my braiding book.

Nice. Is this lined with pigskin?

Key fobs. You'll have to braid it though. 2 mm round leather would also work nice for borders or make some sort of tassel from it. You would have to wrap a wire or just some more of this leather around the top...

electrathon's suggestion contains another idea. If you want to you could cut blanks for dog collars etc which you could sell. I'm seeing this a lot on eBay Germany. If you don't want to sell your remainders and rather make some smaller items here are a few ideas for you: https://www.pinterest.com/riding1493/key-fobs-leather/ or some more ideas here: https://www.pinterest.com/riding1493/small-leather-goods/

And this also what they are like. Türe are very good reasons aus HO, W&C or Chahin are a bit pricey. They are worth every cent.

This is the tutorial which did it for me. Excellent tutorial and a must read as far as I'm concerned http://www.leatherworker.net/ElkDemoClayB/index.htm

Not much of a competition person myself, but I needed a new smartphone case anyways... I'll just add the pictures I took randomly. The quick snap in the back is covered by a strap which assists in pulling out the smartphone if needed. I didn't mold it much as I wanted the smartphone to sit in there tight. Now one can do all kinds of things and it won't drop out unless one actually pulls the smartphone intentionally. A more detailed explanation on it can be found here http://oldmillleathercrafts.thewesternsource.com/new-smartphone-sleeve/

I like your ironic tree of life. Overall, I like your tooling. The only thing I would like to let you know is: don't join the cuts on tips. They tend to become lose and don't look nice after a while. Cutting leather can be done while it's moist. Stamping requires much lesser moisture in the leather. The last two pictures show it well that your leather was too moist for the background tooling. I did that myself until I finally learned it not too long ago.

After you mentioned it, I looked into it.

Tattoo ink? That's good to know. How are you applying it? With the machine or a brush? If you don't find the book, send me a pm.

First, this is good tooling for not doing it for the past 10 years or so. This is the book you want to read "Al Stohlman - Finesse Figure Carving". If you google it you'll find it for sure. Your painting is a lot better than mine.

What a lovely gesture. Hats off to for that.

George, your friend Karen did an amazing job there. Thanks for sharing.

I just hope you meant the mare's leg holster and have a pinterest account https://www.pinterest.com/pin/557461260105897677/ Other than that, it's just bullet loops. Here's an exact copy http://www.magnolialeatherworks.com/shop/mares-leg-holster-steve-mcqueen

Bob, I'm assuming you are speaking about Jochen Schleese. Just slightly different spelling. https://schleese.com/ As a matter of fact I like TinkerTailor's input. Saddle making is beyond my experience, but as a riding instructor I know that there is the odd person that is just as hard to fit as a hard to fit horse. So who knows there may be some relevant skeletal or general structural condition the lady may not even be aware of or forgot about it.

There's no point someone should have to disclose his/her location. If a person feels a need for it he/she can will or does it. If a brand isn't available in whatever country that may be sad, but no reason to disclose the location to every yahoo on the internet. Those in a desperate need to know can ask... the moderators and the admins will be able to identify it by the persons IP if it isn't hidden, masked or spoofed... If a certain brand isn't available in a certain country there's usually a good reason in the cause of DuPont Teflon spray the reason may be that GT85 is providing the same effect. Other reasons in regards of a product may have to do with environmental and health related reasons... and so on. So just because one can't get a specific brand it doesn't mean there isn't an equivalent to that in the persons country. So back to the location. When you guys signed up here you probably noticed mandatory fields and non-mandatory fields. Disclosure of a location isn't mandatory and even though it may be helpful at times it's solely up to the individual whether he/she wants to disclose it or not. In my case, the relevant persons know where I'm from and where I am at the moment. For all others - it's not in their business.

Thank you Bob

I hope you know that the shipping charges for that will be far less than what you'll lose on the sale. At least from Germany the cost will not exceed 20€ for shipping. Don't want to say don't sell them but I would hate to see that you'll lose a lot of money, cause if you'd put them on eBay you prolly wouldn't get more than 100€ for them.

Looks very nice. Where did you get that buckle and the conchos? Also what kind of stamp is that right on the holster? Never seen that before.

Alex, sorry I forgot you are in Germany like me. We have better products in the local building supplies than what I suggested. What Uwe suggested would also be found in the grocery store in the washing detergent aisle called "Waschbenzin". This basically is cleaned Diesel and the reason why I suggested it. I can't judge from the pictures you provided whether it will all come off or not. Depending whether the paint itself contains metal or not. Most of it should come off. You may have to use a buffing wheel though. I'd take it apart anyways.

Thanks Chief and Monica
