  1. jeez you do good work!! those are outstanding!
  2. yes some patterns do but usually not that close in thicknesses. some liners aren't even leather. he needs a definite idea of the pattern he intends to make first off.
  3. i cant wait to see it.
  4. make stuff that uses the same thickness leather. you can do that easily enough with wallets, tags and such. you specd variations of less than one mm. pick the mid thickness and go with it.
  5. very cool!!!
  6. that is cool, how would it work? would you transfer it to a piece of leather?
  7. I'll drink to that lol. It is getting close to brewing season here. we will be picking chokecherries today then later in the week we will be going out for Service berries. They will be wine for the next winter or two. Apples and such go to Brandy.
  8. Those are fantastic looking!
  9. i call it takin it to the next level. Very nice and clean looking work.
  10. nice work my friend. what is the shoot-out about?
  11. man i haven't had a good stout for ages, i think i may pick some up. Peanut whiskey? thats a combo i haven't heard of.
  12. yea I don't think i would use that, go back to what works.my tip.
  13. If the roofer likes it you nailed it!! Very nice and clean work.
  14. that's thinking it out my friend those are very cool looking belts.
  15. LMAO!!! hey even the instructions say it can be used to remove any waste thats wedged in your tool.
  16. I think its so their bits don't get hot and hang up and break off and they can also clean up the hole during the manufacturing process.
  17. cardboard has been used for years as liner for manufactured leather work, right or wrong. I wouldn't think a bag in that price range would have it in it however.
  18. my only guess is that if they used thicker leather they would have to use two thicknesses which would increase cost in their product instead they use one thickness and add layers of crap. Matching color is also a possible reason.
  19. Absolutely! someone took the time to save those, they tell a story.
  20. the inmates where i worked used to melt down styro-foam cups and make shivs/shanks. yes they only need to work once. you would be surprised how sharp they can get. their easiest one was just melting a razor blade into a tooth brush handle Yours is much more refined lol.
  21. You need to preserve it not restore it. Its very cool i would make a replica if your intent was to use it, and display the old one its a relic.
  22. welcome !! you may be giving more advice than getting lol your work is really nice.
  23. those are soooo cool my friend, i would love to have one. Man it makes me miss my old Jeep and a couple of other old trucks i used to own. so much character in those old vehicles that new junk just doesn't provide lol. breakfast of champions!!! smothered with syrup!!! oh yea
