I repurposed some cardboard tubes from my day job. The ID is 6" and are 2 feet long. I duct taped two of them together to make a 4 foot tube, then utilized the under area of my 4'x8' table where the leather sides were previously stored.

i had one made for belt cutouts on holsters. Very reasonable. http://www.usacuttingdie.com/die-examples.html

Well done. Very clean stitching and tooling. Beautiful!

Is it a swing out door? Do you keep the door closed when you are working in the shop? You could always put a couple of shelves or peg boards on the inside of the door. Or mount some large cardboard tubes vertically on it to store some of your leather.

The first image of the Subaru car coaster is right out of the laser. I wipe it with a damp rag, let it dry, then dye it with a light brown Feibing's Pro Dye. Same process for all the images...except different dye colors. It took a minute to dial it in, but works well on Hermann Oak veg tan. I have tried it on the Live Oak tanned leather from Traditions leather out of OKC, but it doesn't laser well for me.

I use my CO2 laser to make all kinds of acrylic stamps and templates for rifle slings, holsters, guitar straps, and belt templates. I have also done some for folding knife sheaths. Occasionally, i am asked to laser engrave knife handles, holsters, and sheaths which I can do on my CO2 laser. I recently got a Fiber / Diode laser which allows me to engrave metal. So now I have added the ability to laser engrave the blades as well as other metallic items.

I bought a cheap one on Amazon for $10. It works very well. I need to put an edge back on it though.

Nice job.

Man, those look sharp. Did you use Tokonole finish on the outside?

Very sharp. I really like how you designed this to attach with the existing bolts on the windscreen. Nicely done.

Floral carvings are timeless. Beautiful work.

That's sharp! I have a pattern that is similar, but is all made from one piece of leather.

Welcome from SW Missouri! Nice looking bag. Mom, I am sure, is proud to carry it.
