My First Sheath
iwannabeacowboy replied to MagiKelly's topic in Gun Holsters, Rifle Slings and Knife Sheathes
For your 1st sheath, it came out very nice. Construction looks good and strong. Your right the ring size looks like it was made for it. When stamping something that's going to be wet formed, you will lose some detail in your stamping. I would have made the basketweeve a little deeper for my taste. What color thread did you use? charlie -
Thumbs up on the preview addition, when looking through the posts it really does save time. Thanks charlie

Really good detail. Great job. charlie

Why stop at business cards. What about your clothes/car/home/shop/wife/husband/kids. Do they speak quality! As far as the cards go, as long as the information is correct and to the point I don't see someone losing business over the fact that some cards cost a few penny's or a quarter each. Get a custom stamp made and make your cards out of leather. I could buy the best cards there are and do bad work, but would the cards fool some people? My thought has always been, My work speaks for itself even with home printed cards. charlie

It's almost hard to believe that it's made out of leather. Saying you did a great job is an understatement. Wow, only wishing I had the Patience to do something like this. 1st prize for sure. charlie

Great site. Lots of ideas. Thanks for sharing. charlie

I've used this for finish coats. http://www.tandyleatherfactory.com/home/department/Liquids-N/2091-00.aspx?feature=Product_1 they work pretty good for being so simple. Other option would be air brushing, but that costs more money for equipment. charlie

Try using a hair dryer after you rub it in. I know when I use Sno-Seal(works great) they recommend heating the leather before and after it's applied. Really helps it soak in. charlie

How about my house? charlie

While Not Leather It Will Support My Leather Books
iwannabeacowboy replied to Jordan's topic in All About Us and Off Topic
Nice design, really nice oil finish. Cherry sets it off. charlie -
The sunset finish I believe can be done with an airbrush to get the proper fade in/out of different colors. The rest I'll leave to better qualified for your questions. charlie

Very Nice. These really look good. charlie
