    Finished a new knife sheath, the carving pattern came from Jim Linnell, it is amazing how you can repurpose a drawing for other items. Knife sheaths are a fun item to make, because each one is custom fit to the knife. Thanks for looking

    Thank you, I will try to out your suggestions to use. Harder than it looks when a good artist draws. LOL

    This is my first pattern drawn while taking Don Gonzales course. The bottom flower needs to be bigger, but I wanted to see it carved. Think it will be kept as a reminder of my starting point. Lots of improvement hoped for but it was fun creating my own design and satisfying. Suggestions always welcome, and thanks for looking.

    Very Impressive.

    Hi thank you. the whole thing was antiqued, If you look up Jim Linnell Elk Tracks Studio he has great teaching videos. He is very down to earth and his style is very easy to learn from. It might be worth your time. Hope this helps.

    Nice, the stamping is great. Have wanted to try airbrushing, you are giving that nudge to try.

    Handsewn would be better no marks then, plus larger thread. Thank you

    Agreed not my favorite either.

    Thank you, Jim put outs some great stuff. Thank you. Yes I am gluing the flap to the body, I sand the body first to give the glue something to bite into.

    Worked on a Cowboy Checkbook Cover from a Jim Linnell pattern. Looking for Critiques and suggestions on things to improve. Figure carving is a challenge of mine that I am working on improving. In the end I would like to start custom making items for others if my work is up to par. Thank you for looking and responding. Walt

    Working on a new Credit card holder for the Secrid RFID card holder. Basically a wrap that allows you to carry more card size items. Gini loves Sunflowers so we used this design from Jim Linnell and sized it to fit. She has one now I made a couple years ago and it shows how far my skills have come. Time for a new one.

    Thank you for the kind words, one thing I have found is good stamps make it a lot easier. I think this axe is more of a display piece, but I would love to see it aged and with a patina. Thank you, I will make friends with my class 4 just haven't made as many sheaths or holsters to get used to it. I love Maine Thread Co. also.

    Very nice work, love your edges especially. Well Done.

    Thank you for the kind words.

    This is actually the second sheath, firs sheath the needle came out of the edge. I mis-stitched ruining the sheath. I will make friends with it. I will soon make friends with it. Thank you Thank you, yes natural plus NF oil.

    Thank you, It is more of a display axe, Damascus steel very pretty, so I don't think he will take it into the woods. But I would love to see it in 3 or 4 years after aging.
