  1. Thank you and i sincerely hope you can be doing leather for much longer also. i've been doing it in some form or another for about 40 years or so. Never really serious about it like you are, but it was a learned necessity in the beginning. we are pretty isolated here as far as being able to buy a lot of things, so i had to make them .lol Now i make some money to help with retirement with it.
  2. so what type of bow do you use this with?
  3. cool glove i had to google it to see how it was worn and found the exact pic on reddit. lol I have shot a lot of arrows in my day but never seen one of these. i guess cause all my bows have rests. Always wanted to try an archers thumb ring.
  4. That is one of your best !! beautiful contrast and that smile is perfect!!
  5. Nice job i like your art work. My old art teacher would agree with the others as well just the mans shadow would be enough to create the illusion.
  6. i use super sheen, don't know if it is the best or not but you can also use it as a resist so that your dye doesn't get where you don't want it. If you want it natural apply super sheen then you can dye the background or whatever without ruining. Alot of folks use 50/50 acrylic floor wax like mop n glo and water as a sealer also.
  7. Get a small block of wood to line your letter stamps against you can draw lines on it to get the correct spacing as well and trust your backstitch without the glue. A really nice project I like your drawing style and tooling.
  8. yes i have a lot to make but not today, 63 years young today, I'm gong to relax all day have a great supper and enjoy some of my homemade Chokecherry brandy.
  9. nice old Buck with a nice new home.
  10. Thats a club we are all in and a pile we all own. lol I've used a couple of his also. The lesson i got out of my mistakes is to make a pattern from heavy weight card stock type paper then i can wrap it and test the fit before cutting leather.
  11. maybe he used his magic wand for a pattern. Speaking of invisible what's with camouflaged flashlights? IF its dark you cant see them anyway and if they are turned on the camo wont do much good lol.
  12. very nice pattern indeed, me i'm watching the wind blow 60 mph while i drink some coffee. Then i'm going to do some work on gifts for Christmas.
  13. i like that. good start indeed
  14. i dont download sorry. Are you looking for original belly boxes or a pouch of some kind?
  15. i use weldwood contact cement. buy one of those big syringes you use for brining turkeys
  16. I draw a 1 inch line on mine for reference and add any notes that may be necessary.
  17. I would be interested in seeing them. i make some similar and have had good luck with them.
  18. i just scan mine after i make them.
  19. awesome rig!! semi fancy is just the right look IMO.
  20. reconstructive surgery lol. I'll bet it was fun.
