  1. thanks the back side was not very even but not real bad a couple of crooked stitches. I should have i guess they are gone now lol. Basically just a strap type belt loop.
  2. Thank you. Thanks , that maul is working out great! Thank you.
  3. looks like an easy build
  4. A couple sheaths i put together for a fellow. Gotta love those leftys lol they keep us in business or at least the righthanded only consumer world does.
  5. That came out real nice, its definitely one to be proud of.
  6. i pretty much gauge my leather by eye and skive as much as i feel is right. If you really want one you can make one for pennies probably, cut a vee notch in something like plastic, wood or heavy paper then use you mic and put marks along it coinciding with oz's. It doesn't get much simpler than that. Even an old credit card would work. if you spend more than ten bucks on anything to do that job your crazy. lol
  7. i use a caliper also i just put a piece of masking tape on the back with the conversions.
  8. Thats a nice hat, Is it all 3mm? what leather did you use? is there wire in the brim?
  9. kinda vague question. Like asking whats the best leather for shoes? What are your chaps going to be used for work, show, do you live in the cold North or hot south? Motorcycles or horses? Are you making historically correct reproduction's?

  14. maybe its upside down? Looks like it if its for right handed people.
  15. Steam punk got its start in redneck engineering. I dont see no duct tape lol.
  16. Thank you all !! I agree there is no better book to cover, good reading also!!
