Very tidy work - well done they look great Harv

Saddle Tan Eco-Flo Gel Antique from Tandy, the medium brown comes out like this - I love it
-
This is one coat of the gel (Eco-Flo Gel Antique Saddle Tan) unevenly applied to plain leather with a rag - a similar kind of look. Keep up the good work Harv

A job well done that man nice looking finish - you can achieve a nice mottled / grain pattern almost effect using antique gel but I really like what you did and the pattern is lovely. Cheers Harvey

The hanger part between the belt and the bag - I used a curved wooden coat hanger to template the curves and the hook in the middle was used to align on a centre mark whilst making the pattern :-) I hope that helps H

Thanks - I used a coat hanger for the curves and the hook in the middle of the hanger allows lining up on centre marks, low tech works most of the time

Thanks SpaceDog - I'm hoping this one leads to more orders from the local steam-punk groups

Thanks BikerMutt - I figured as much, worth asking though

Hi all I've just completed a commission for a steampunk leg bag. I used an oiled leather from Tandy - can this stuff be wet moulded at all please? The bag hangs down 9 inches from the belt so it sits around the upper thigh, for future ones I may try and cut in something like a spiders web pattern into the hanging harness. Any feedback welcome :-) Thanks Harvey

How about a two piece pouch? I made this for a tool bag - back piece folds up to form the base and there's no complicated gusset stitching in what looks like a small item, you could always re-enforce the back for belt attachments. Just a suggestion :-) Harv -
Hi - nice piece of work very smart. I've heard the perforated paper and powder pattern transfer method referred to as 'poncing' but I don't know what the official name of this method is. We'd probably call the cloth holding the powder a dobber. Cheers Harvey
