[Some Recent Work Ive Done]

this seat is for kajun kustoms in lousiana. I had alot of fun with this one!

[Some Recent Work Ive Done]

JLSleather, the owner of that seat came to me with the request for this seat and when he told me what he wanted i looked at him and told him he didnt look like a someone whom resided in the big house! he laughed at me and said it was refering to life behind the handlebars.... it was a fun project it was my first using eyelets.

fletch my brother was a jarhead and he had a drawing in his photobook that i took and photoshopped. send me your email and i will send you a copy!

thanks for looking!

Those look great!

Former "Jarhead" myself. I am about to make a tooled piece for a sunroof cover and that Eagle Globe and Anchor look perfect. May I ask where you got that pattern from? The size and proportions look great.

I tried to take a smaller one to a local xerox place to have it enlarged but the proportions looked very strange to my eye, unbalanced.

[Some Recent Work Ive Done]

[Ostrich Inlay Seat And Bag]

[The Car Decoration With The Leather Carving.]

WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!! that is awesome!

[First Post/First Seat]

Hey Kyle, I like the seat! very nice job

[I need help on carving and colouring flames]

I started with the natural leather color added yellow and then saddle tan and a bit of red. i kept the sponge wet and added color a small bit at a time. I made this seat a year ago and its kept its color good.

[my last seat]

Last x-mas i got a tandy leather gift set from my wife. she said it would keep me occupied since i just got out the army. well here we are one year later and I wanted to share these pics. here are my first seat ever (jan 09) and my latest seat (dec 09)..I want to thank you guys for the motivation and for sharing your art... I hope you guys enjoy them.

[Latest step by step seat build]

do you glue your seat to the plastic to keep it from stretching?

[Newest Bike seat]

great seat david! how many hours does a seat like this takes?

[SEAT AND PILLION I CANT SHOW]

nice seat!

[Latest Carving project]

great job!

[Pearl Harbor Seat done]

what a great seat!

[just finished my second seat]

thanks guys!

I did use glue but I didnt use it all over the top foam. just on the largest area of the seat and not too much at that. but for the next one I will use more glue if it would make it easier to form.

to seal the seat I used carnuba leather wax then sheen. I didnt have any problems with it running or seaping.

[just finished my second seat]

here is the bike with the seat on.

[Latest Seat]

Thanks!

the top and bottom are glued to the pan/padding and each other then sewn.

i just use artificial sinew (waxed) that is recommended for hand stitching, two needles, diamond point awl ect.

the seat looks very clean and the stitch is awesome, I hope I can get that good someday.

[just finished my second seat]

I used eco-flo lime green stain with black oil stain.

Very cool looking, good job. What did you use to color it with?

[just finished my second seat]

A fellow student of MMI wanted me to recover his lepera seat with flames for his bike. this is what i came up with. since im just starting I didnt know what i was getting into but i guess it turned out good.

Stretching leather is not fun at all!!!! but i guess if you have patience and time its worth the hassle.

tell me what you guys think, cause i want to keep getting better.

I will post pics of the seat on his bike as soon as i get some

[new seat just finished]

thanks guys! I think the seat looks good, but I know its not perfect. I cant wait to start another project to see how close to perfect i can get it.

Tom and Seth from Tandy Orlando have been awesome at helping me with this or that and I am greatfull to have started with such instructors!

thanks again guys!

[new seat just finished]
