    Looks good to me.

    If you do it the SAME every stitch you will get consistent results. Whether you run the left hand needle through first or the right hand, do it the same each time.

    I think I would go with either straight saddle tan, or dark brown. Perhaps cordovan. When I look at it my eyes should be drawn to the inlay, and they are not.

    Nice job. The only thing I might have changed would be a bit more contrast between the two leathers, just to make your inlay pop.
  5. tsunkasapa
    Nicely done. Are you going to stitch or lace?
  6. tsunkasapa
    Lookin' good!

    Very nice. I like the 1911 ones.

    As a guess, I would say that the socket is 'cupping', causing it to be smaller.

    Nice work! On a side note, Tsunka sapa means Black Dog in Lakota.

    No, I use that FOR lining.

    More info is needed. Discoloration/damage HOW?
  12. tsunkasapa
    Don't use the swivel knife. Just bevel the lines or use a modeling spoon.

    Look into vg tan sheep. Muc thinner and far more supple than beef. You may want to 'break it in' a bit, but I use it for linin holsters and it is very 'bendable/foldable'. Or kid skin.

    Vaseline is a petroleum product, I wouldn't use it on leather.

    Very nice! Love oak leaves!

    I do nothing to the inside of a checkbook. I don't slick it, dye it or finish/seal it. It doesn't show, so I don't lose any sleep over it.

    Having dealt with hair-on elk, I would discourage it. They will shed terribly and end up with bald spots.

    I buy these chopping mats at the Dollar store (which is a $1.25 store these days) and use them to protect my bench top when dying or using cement. They wipe clean with alcohol.

    Same here, but my son pulled mine out of a pile they were using for fill on a construction site.

    Hello

    Welcome! Lots of knowledge and advice to be found here.

    Nicely done.

    No, the ones I've seen are just the goatskin lined with the fabric.
  24. tsunkasapa
    No, just on the front. 'Woolies' are frequently made as batwings and are lined with canvas.

    I use it making/repairing buckskins for rendezvous.
