I am interested in creating fancy old fasioned goods, I love how straps and lo tec solutions to closing adjusting and attaching material  with out the use of hardware. The art of tying knots and how cowboys vaqueros and even emigrants from the old country came to the melting pot and exchanged knowledge.

A simple horse harness in sweden have many variations and influences from english and eastern traditions just depending on the climate and general access to material in the area.

Hence the many variations to using metal wood and leather to produce excellent work equipment. Buckels,snaps just a simple Chicago screw, hinges and how we use it traditionally fascinates me.
