  1. Thanks, had a fit issue (too loose) between the lid and box bottom so I remade the bottom to fit better. I’ve got 1 more (for myself) to still do the pillows on. Thank You.
  2. Finished watch box for a gift. Will be finishing up mine soon.
  3. Fantastic work! The edges dyed to the stitch line look great, mistake or not.
  4. Thank you this one is a gift. I still need to do the pillows for mine.
  5. Thank you! The box & lid is 13oz skirting and corners stitched with 1mm tiger thread. Pillows are made from a lightly waxed leather I got in a bundle for notebooks about 4.5oz and stitched with 138 thread on my cb3200.
  6. Here it is finished with the pillows and a couple watches.
  7. Fantastic work, keep a close eye on it on the job site.
  8. Stamping and interior look good, I agree with others the edge is a tad thick. Skive the layers down a bit and you’ll have it perfected.
  9. First one I did without a jig as well and it wasn’t pretty, although it was functional.
  10. I’m sorry for your loss, glad to bring back a happy memory. Thank you. The key has been using a pre-angled board to cut the miters and having a sewing jig to hold the corners at 90degrees. I will definitely post the finished product with the pillows when done.
  11. As the assigned driver and senior firefighter, I have a ton of tasks to keep track of throughout the day and on calls. The field notes works great for keeping things straight during organized chaos. Thy are pretty quick to do and simple. The diamons where my simple solution to add a little flare. Thank You
  12. Thank you, have the jigs for cutting the angle and then holding for stitching makes them much simpler. Thank hopefully the recipient like it.
  13. Finished one of two boxes for watches, still need to do the pillows.
  14. Depending on what exactly you want try a local trophy shop
  15. I’ve not been at this long but and am in the beginning of starting to build out my work area. I have one bench that serves as a dye area, small bench with granite for tooling/setting and small cutting. I will me adding a larger table that is 6ft x 3ft (may end up 7ftx3ft top) with shelf underneath to store leather. This new table will be used as a cut/layout table. I have my CB3200 against a wall and a bench with my sander/burnisher and drill press.
  16. I tried using the smaller taller arbor and it needs dismantled and polished. So I went with the wider arbor.
