you need 2 double prong hooks and a leather belt loop never mind....this is for a shoulder strap to hand strap you indicate you want a belt strap to shoulder strap?

LOOKS GOOD I likey

A friend asked me to make a bag that will hold binoculars, roll of toilet paper, and a sprite [ LOL I swear, that is what he said] those were the parameters of my build elk hide from SLC I made a ''box'' out of veg/tan 4oz/6oz the bottom is 3 pieces of veg/tan / stacked and glued covered the ''box'' with the elk hide and used an 1/8'' black lase in a S stitch, except the front as a clasp, I used a deer bone, [front leg] cut/sanded/ the strap is stamped with a brass buckle for adjustment

powder coating you can use this machine, it worked fine for me, you need to sand blast or bead blast all parts before coating, , other wise you may get some rough / ugly spots do not touch the parts with your bare hands after sand blasting. use gloves [oil on your skin] any area that has to have a tight fit when assembled needs masking off. i spent 4 hours sliding a bolt in and out of a receiver to wear the coating down enough for smooth operation after spraying, you can either let hang dry or bake. i used a old gym locker with a simple hot plate on the bottom to heat hanging gun barrels be advised.. no dust can be present while drying...mask off an area with plastic,or you risk getting the fuzzies if you lave the air brush dirty, you need to buy a new one,,,dont ask,just take my word on that

A few changes, I was not happy with the look

Learning how to make a purse This is elk hide and veg tan The veg tan is wet formed, then I made a frame using the veg tan wrapped it in elk hide, added a strap in the middle to help with the shape. Straps are not made yet, nor is the clasp

At age 18 this [Bottom picture] was my air gun, I was in charge, I told the flight crew what they could and could not do in MY BUFF As I grew older, I had to give my BUFF to another younger whipper snapper. then my attention was focused on a different type of air gun.

When using 1/8'' [3.mm] flat lace, what is the hole spacing for a double loop stitch? is it 1/4'' [6.mm] ? from the outside edge to center of hole, what is the correct depth? Brian,

One thing I did learn, That to me, Is a valuable tidbit. It will make the fibers lay down, and you can get a shine

10 bucks? LOL not worth buying a tap and bit they would cost 20

NICE work I have been making whips using gutted para cord for over a year I think it is time to switch to leather any pointers would be appreciated

can you drill a hole same size as screw then retap one size larger, use a different screw?

conducted an experiment using natural stain polyurethane water based , and a licorice color acrylic I use a hair dryer to speed drying times here are my steps and findings It looks good,and is scratch resistant,very shiny

drill the broken screw nout you need to break out the dremal tool with an abrasive cut off wheel,,,run the dremal and wear the abrasive wheel down on a piece of metal,to the size you feel is small enough for the task very carefully, cut groove in the busted screw, then use small screw driver in the groove to back the screw out

i get hardware form https://www.strapworks.com/default.asp?sscid=a1k3_chaqi and my leather from slc leather .com buckles from e bay or amazon. hey arashikage the meaning of life is procreate and family philosophy of life is a smile on a dog dealing with stress. is a simple matter of mind over matter, if you don't mind,it don't matter

The Government of Commiefornia has no right to ban the sale of any damn thing. It is up to an individual to make the decision on what to buy, not the government edited +what about the Indian tribes? not allowed to make deer skin moccasins? does this mean if you kill an elk for food. you have to let the hide rot away wastefully?

I found the picture THIS is UGLY I needed a copper funnel, with a 2'' outlet, So I made one from 1/2'' copper pipe And I am PROUD OF THE UGLIEST FUNNEL EVER MAD

I NEVER laugh at another's art work, especially when I am making ugly old cars with 357 motors in them post that hammer so we can all see its beauty!!!!!!!

I am working on purse for SIL I am adding a strap that will sew to the back.inside. Loop up then down, sewn to the front of the purse how can i secure the loop to the side panel ? The loop is to give the top support and to be decorative on the front, attached to a D ring on the back

a TRUE handmade leather item , would by definition be made using a flint knife and a deer bone as a needle

Went into the local monument store in the near by town. The lady was busy, but took the time to ask if she could be of help. I stated I saw a small piece of granite by the dumpster. and asked if I could have it She said yes. Small is such a subjective word. what is small to me may or may not be small to you.
