That's a cool outer layer for sure. Love the way it finished up.

Looks great. I like the idea of leaving leather natural so it will darken over time. I love it. And, no, you are not the only one to double up on lenses. I sometimes wear my readers with a jewelers loop setup over them. Maybe that's the trade off...as we get older, we get to share our experience with others 'cause we can't do it ourselves any more. LOL. I am a really good softball coach for my granddaughter, but I can't throw the ball from 1st to 3rd without it bouncing or sending shooting pains through my shoulder. Ahh...youthfulness.

Very nice. Really like the design. Very thoughtful!!

Welcome to the leatherworker forum from SW Missouri, USA.. I don't think you can find a better collection of folks to help you with your sewing machines. Very knowledgeable group for sure. Make sure to share your projects as you complete them. We love to see what is being created from around the world.

Great work as always @chuck123wapati. I love seeing how creative you are and solving problems along the way. I am not into archery, but have several acquaintances that are. I may try to do some tinkering. Thanks for sharing. Always fun to see what you're working on.

Very nice. How long did it take to stamp the belt?

Wow. The detail is great. I love the heart as the top of the hourglass. Very creative. Well done.

That's a pretty nice blank. Nice combo you have there for sure. Are you making the handle? Can't wait to see it.

Not too dark at all. I rather like it. Just curious what it was. Hard to tell from the pic. That looks awesome.

Yes. The outside is drum dyed 9-10oz veg tan. The inside is 3-4oz natural veg tan. I sewed them together so it has a finished inside.

Thanks! Where is the leather sourced from? What type of tanning process? (i.e. veg tan, chrome tan) Where is it tanned?

Very nice. what is the black strip running vertically in the 2nd picture?

Pretty cool. Got pics of the blade you can share too??

+1. The border really makes it pop! definitely better than the original. Much cleaner look. Nice job!!

I would not buy the one I am using. It is on loan to me at the moment from a local school system. It is a glowforge. Way over priced and proprietary software. i like it because it's free to me, otherwise, I would go with something else.

That does look great. And great photos as well. Love seeing what others are making! Keep sharing!

Thanks @Samalan!!
