    Well it was going to be a one piece when it started but I decided to add a pocket to the front. I'm glad I did. I like the pocket. I still need to make a shoulder strap. Tom

    Thank you Allen. I got the idea for that design some where in here. But when i tried to find it again I couldn't. I just wanted to say thanks to all of the folks here at leatherworker for the lessons i have learned. So who ever you are that inspired that design, thank you. Tom

    Thanks rhall I think you'll find it is a fun project. Maybe a little frustrating when the hole dont line up but it all seems to work out in the end. Just have to stick the rivets in when you form it and while it's still wet. Then let it dry as you can see in the pic. Tom

    Thank you for the compliments guys and yes they are copper. # 9, didn't want a rust issue. I had made one before and thats how I got the request for these. The hard part for me was just making sure all the holes lined up after I formed it. Some were alittle off but nothing I couldnt work with. all and all a couple of fun projects. Tom

    Made these for a couple of iron workers my brother knows. They are 4"x7" by 9" deep. The guys are inspectors now so they just need to carry a bunch of note books and calulators and stuff in them. Tom

    Awhile back some one posted that they were starting a makers stamp collection. Well I now have one of my own. I ordered it from "Grey Ghost Graphics" out of Myrtel Beach SC. I ordered it on Friday and got it today, Saturday. It works great. It cost $55.00 plus $10.00 for shipping. I got the 1" one. Tom

    Any kind. carving, braiding, just something fun. I,ve been trying to learn to make buttons. I think I have one style down pretty good now, but I dont count. i have plenty of deer antlers. What ever you guys want to do I'm game. Tom

    Well here I sit in a hotel in Knoxville, on the road again. At least I can still look at the work others are doing. This bag is a perfect example of why like your work Spider. It shows originality and the Spider style. It's just too cool. thanks for sharing it with us. Tom

    I got some deer antlers from the guy at the meat locker and I'd be willing to pick out the best of the lot and donate them for a challenge prize. So if anybody has an idea for a challenge topic. Tom

    Well I haven't been posting much lately cause it seems like I've been on the road for the last million years. I hate leaving home. Just got home last week and I gotta hit the road again next week. Oh well. I sure miss my little work/play bench when I'm gone. See ya when I get back, again. Tom

    All I need now are some spurs. Never made this sorta thing before so I thought I'd give it a try. They're kinda rough but maybe the next pair will be better. Tom

    I'd like to get in on this one. I'll go international also Tom

    I have used neat-lac but was warned it will crack and leave a not so nice finish. Any thoughts on this? Tom
  21. carr52
    I agree with Kate and Twin, take care of your family and you are in my thoughts and prayers. Tom

    How right you are. Thanks David. Here is something I was playing with. I was going to do something different with this but figured what the heck, need something to experiment on. Used Lexol and it worked out fine, no splochs. Tom
  23. carr52
    That exactly what happened. It was right where i first applied the Fiebings stain. Tom
  24. carr52
    The guy came back and brought me another one of them so now I have 2 of them. I like the inlay idea. Tom
  25. carr52
    I ended up with a stain on the darn thing. but thats the way it goes sometimes. The flap is done with Fiebings Sheridans brown. Couldn't get the stain out no matter how hard I tried. I decided I was I was just a dead horse so I gave up on it. Tom
