  1. Hello, I've been lurking around here for a few weeks but I decided to jump in and introduce my self. I've ben working in leather for about 20 years off and on (more off than on). I figure about 2 to 3 years straight. Meaning I know just enough to do it more wrong than right and not know how I did it. Due to a situation beyond my control I was forced ( Happily ) to take it most seriously as of late. I have a lot to learn and hopefully the decades of learning and wisdom will penetrate my skull by osmosis. Like they say I know I know nothing and that is the first in learning. I enjoy making bags mostly, messenger, satchels, totes ect. my belts are a joke but I'm learning. Dog collars, and a lead or 2. The people who have helped me in that past were not... the nicest so I can handle a harsh critique If I slip PLEASE let me know and help me to do it right. Thanks I have learned a lot from lurking so lets hope I learn more form interacting!
