Have been interested in making things out of leather since high school and college. Learned basic small scale manufacturing techniques from a local artisan, assisting in gluing & sewing as well as some presentation and sales. Learned luggage repair, then shoe repair before branching out into other areas of life.

Became involved in historical re-enacting & cowboy action shooting simultaneously in the early 90’s. Became interested in wet molding leather in the mid 2000’s, and ended up creating wearable sculptures which I refer to as Bustiers (for women). Attended some Art shows, but found a small niche with the BDSM crowd. Still looking for better venues, and/or markets.

One of my greatest joys is seeing all of the talent and techniques on the forum that I have no experience with.
