  1. Beautiful...no end to the use of leather.
  2. Very classy. Clean lines and stitching. Well done.
  3. Thanks! My late wife helped me pen that. That's a great idea. Love the unique bubble wrap. I bet it does add color. I have a couple "lucky" bills in my wallet. Following Dad's footsteps.
  4. Buck knives always put in a little slip of paper explaining a bit about their company and their beliefs. I have kind of adopted it and include this in mine.
  5. @Northmount can help you out. He is one of the moderators.
  6. subscribed.
  7. Ha ha . I knew an old guy, oh yeah, he was old...he helped us out on the farm when I was a kid. Anytime anything mechanical or electrical would give him fits, he would pull out his trusty hammer and give the thing a few taps. Generally, whatever wasn't working would begin working as it should. Glad it was an easy fix.
  8. Great advice for the novice carver. but like @JLSleathersaid....GIT good leather. I don't know why I struggled so much with carving on the import leather until I got some Hermann Oak. Made a world of difference. My method of casing leather is simply running a damp sponge over it several times, then waiting 2-3 minutes before starting. On a larger piece, I may case it multiple times as I go, depending on how long it takes me to carve.
  9. Welcome to the forum! Stick around a bit, share some of your projects. Ask questions to improve your knowledge of leatherworking. I applaud your effort of trying to sell your product, but because it is your first and only post, it comes off as kind of spammish. If you would like to become an advertiser on the site, simply contact one of the admins. They can get you set up.
  10. No dog in the fight either, but looks like a ribbon.
  11. Pretty sharp, I must say. Great design. Great execution.

    Tropical Setting

    refreshing!
  13. Thanks @Frodo what is it used for?
  14. I am pretty sure those are sewn on a machine.
  15. Sorry, I haven't ever used them, but those I have seen used looked very antiquish. Good luck with your search.
  16. Nice work! He should be very pleased.
  17. It's amazing what seeing one's own logo on a product does. From a sales standpoint, it can do wonders.
  18. Welcome to the forum. Keep us posted on your progress.
  19. Welcome! There are folks on here from all over the world, several from Australia. There is a lot of history here too. Lots of answered questions you will find in searches. If not, ask away. Glad to help.
  20. Thanks @chuck123wapati. Hermann oak. 2 layers of 5-6 ounce. Smooth - inside and out. Thanks @Bert03241 thought you might like the concho
  21. That is some special work for a special day. Oh to have something like that to look back on in later years. Wishing I had something like it. Great job. Thanks for explaining how you put the lettering on there.
  22. Thank you!! Working on a buscadero gun belt now for a client. Can't wait to see how it comes out. My first one.
  23. I like the way the antiquing turned out. A different, but good look, IMO. Stitching looks great too! it took me a minute to find the back stitch.
  24. Looks great!!!!
