  1. My most favorite projects are creating something specific for that someone special! Even if it is simple, the joy in their eyes when they receive it is priceless. The wallet looks great! Thanks for sharing!!!!
  2. Fantastic job. Never heard of that book / magazine before. I will have to look it up.
  3. bunches. bovine, horse, goat, pig, and more. And lots of variations of those. Then you also have the faux leather.
  4. That is pretty cool. Never seen such! well done!!
  5. I would go for at least 3/4" - 1" in width. You can double up on the thickness by laminating it. I would also put two handles on it...one lower so you can have him heel. The other allowing him a little freedom.
  6. nice looking rig indeed. Is the belt made from a piece of folded leather? I only see one stitch line; on the top. Is this for the money belt portion? Can you post some pics of the inside showing how you did the money belt?
  7. just recently had a client wanting a gun belt with attached holsters and bandelero loops. He said he found some cheap ones online for $150ish. He said the good ones were $400ish but had a 12-16 week leadtime. I told him he was in luck...I only charged $350 and could have it done in 5-6 weeks. He was pleasantly surprised and gave me his business. Pleased as punch..
  8. I really like the look of that. Looks like a nice, supple leather already broke in. Nice job.
  9. This may do the trick... found it on the leathercraft library site. https://tandyleather.com/blogs/leathercraft-library/shotgun-case-and-bird-bag-pattern-pak-2691
  10. Beautiful! Simple and elegant design.
  11. I loved the game of baseball, back when it was a game. I stopped watching it in 1989 after the 2nd strike. Lots of great memories from going to the different parks as a kid. This brings them back. Thanks for the walk down memory lane. Well captured. Love the bat in one hand and a glove on the other.
  12. Love the dye job and patterning here. Almost looks like snakeskin. Nice Job! Really enjoy stories of folks reaching out to those in need. Definitely an outreach here. Praying for your friend.
  13. I normally just use wool daubers. They are dedicated to a certain color. These I keep in a ziploc baggie with the color of the dye written on the baggie in sharpie. When I use a small brush, I have one of those jars ladies use to remove fingernail polish. I dip the brush in there, then dab it off on a paper towel. Works very well. Something like this...
  14. Beautiful work as always, @Stewart
  15. Welcome from the great state of Missouri! Glad to have you aboard. Step in...the water is fine.
  16. I have always used natural leather, but they had some drum dyed black veg tan from HO at Springfield Leather. I got some and tried it out on a Buscadero holster. No carving, just stamping. It seemed to work just like normal veg tan. It took a little longer for the water to absorb, but it worked just the same. I only case with water using a sponge.
  17. Nice looking work and clean stitching. I am sure the client will love it.
  18. Good lookin products! Really like the hat and mini corset!
  19. Never had a JEEP hatchet, but had a JEEP. Just Empty Every Pocket. Nicely done.
  20. where it comes just below the knees.
  21. Welcome from SW Missouri. Will be in Olive Branch first week in May visiting family. It is a halfway point between me and family members from Georgia. Can't wait to eat at Corky's...#2 on my list of BBQ joints. BTW, Memphis BBQ and Rendevous is #3 and 4 respectively.
  22. Pretty snazzy!!
  23. Pretty sharp. Good luck with the farmer's market!
  24. He is risen indeed!!
