man your knife work and tooling rocks!

that is a cool gift idea great tooling

thanks thanks it sure did come out nice i managed to get the pattern pretty straight. thanks thanks i may be using this pattern now with my knives. pretty easy build and it would look really good with an antler hafted knife. Thanks lol yea i know his sisters are. thank you yea mine is plain jane compared to his i may have to make me one now.

that is a great idea

dang nice job there, ima gonna have to build mine after huntin season.

maybe these would work https://www.mcmaster.com/rivets/hollow-rivets/

most look like eyelets, probably more heavy duty than modern ones. Friggin cool project indeed i love that kind of stuff.

My first try at snakeskin and crossdraw, made it for my son, he will be the talk at elk camp this year lol. bison brown with prairie rattler.

very nice job!

great use of scrap for sure and nice design.

very nice!

ole rooster Cogburn woulda loved em. at least the new ole rooster would have lol. So do I!!!

Heck yea or some smaller pokes i have seen the smaller ones that hang around the neck. It also makes a nice liner material for belts, guitar straps, and the like. Im looking for ideas too my son has brain tanned a few deer hides so they are similar. A nice pair of gloves would work too. or some moccasins.

really nice work !!! have you thought of putting a chain or maybe a lanyard similar to a truckers wallet so it wont get dropped in the creek an float away. Don't ask me how i know lol.

Awesome tool!! I've found the older tools often are about the best at what they do.

very cool Those will work awesome in my green house.

try on scrap first.

from what ive read in about five minutes the jobmate are lower end tools sold by Canadian tire Seems Canadian tire outsources their tools and have a few different quality brands made for them. No personal knowledge of them just info from the net, that being said doesn't mean they wont work for you, i have hundreds of auto tools of every quality and use them all equally i.e. till they break lol.

It would be a toss up on which was better made as the Pastor said just selling points. Who manufactured each set? keep both sets sounds like your handy man will need replacements, let him use the crappiest ones first.

practice with it, use it for mockups or new pattern making

That is an awesome pattern indeed your work always inspires. I could even see one in black silhouette with a sunset background.

sell it on the forum.

Here sewing machines can be had for free usually except for those few treadle machines that are complete. you can pick up any number of used home machines for nothing. People just don't sew anymore so granny's machine goes to the yard sale then the dumps. I guess some folks collect them so that may push up the cost on some if they are perfect. just in one summer i picked up four older machines for nothing all were in almost unused condition. My favorite is a 401a slant needle machine freebie that was in like new condition i love that thing. Rebuilding and reselling is about the same as bicycles nowadays the younger folks in the US have been taught to buy only brand new then throw away and buy brand new again, go figure, so collectors are the only ones that would even look.

no same here i'm still trying.
