I did a blog post review of Texas Leather Dies. I won't recreate it here, but the condensed version is --they are amazing. Ten outta ten! If you'd like the details, check it out on my website at https://www.BruceGibsonDesign.com If you're in the market for clicker dies, mallet dies, etc., I highly recommend these folks. They are also Leatherworker.net supporters. Awesome all-around!

Shout Out to Bossier City Tandy Crew
BruceGibson replied to bikermutt07's topic in Leatherwork Conversation
I used to live in Bossier City--LOVED it! They didn't have a Tandy store back then (it's been about 27-years). I'll second Rockoboy. Your story, and his comment made my day. God Bless you both!- 22 replies

Thin Blue Line cuff or bracelet
BruceGibson replied to BruceGibson's topic in Collars, Cuffs, Leashes and Leads
Thanks! -
I saw something similar a while back and thought it was a cool color combination, and also a pretty awesome tribute to our law enforcement officers. I'd wanted to do something and I finally gave it a shot the other day. This is what I came up with. Comments, critiques, suggestions, questions, etc., are always welcome.

Hey! Sorry for the slow response--I just saw this. I cut the face panel and the back panel exactly the same size. If I'm going to be stamping or carving on the face, I'll tape the backside (flesh side) of the face panel to minimize/eliminate any stretching. It works for me, but I always recommend experimenting to see what works best for you. I'm no expert--not by a long shot! These are just my ways, and what works for me.

Thank you, sir. I enjoy the pattern drawing itself, and the challenge of filling the space.

Glock 43 Pancake Style.
BruceGibson replied to Mattsbagger's topic in Gun Holsters, Rifle Slings and Knife Sheathes
Nice! The Glock 43's on my list of patterns to make and holsters to build. -
Thanks, Josh! I enjoyed this one--I need the practice, and these are like little canvases.

It's 7/8 oz. Hermann Oak. Hope it's starting to warm up in Ontario. I've been to Thunder Bay a few times--that is some beautiful country!

Thank you! I'm not a fan of too many decorative cuts, but that's just my quirk. I do use them, but when I do it's minimal--some would say I don't use enough. I think it's all a matter of personal taste. One thing I learned was not to get too tangled up in "rules." Paddle your own canoe!

Face and backside. Kimber Pro Raptor II with 4" barrel. High-ride with a 15-degree rake/cant.

LMAO! Yep, one's usually enough. I hate moving, so I'm just gonna die right here.
-
I hear ya! That is a good one--can't remember the name of the guy that shot it, but it was a good job. You get relocated yet?

Make one.

Rolled leather dog collar
BruceGibson replied to TeriYool's topic in Collars, Cuffs, Leashes and Leads
Looks real good! -
Thanks for the review! I've never used Buckle Guy, but they're on my list of folks to try. You can't have too many hardware sources!
-
Thanks for posting these, Jeff! Awesome work on the patterns, and a mighty generous thing to do!

Very nice!
