I am kind of new here, I used to log in as chinkmaker but some things changed and now I am Tkleather1. Now that I know how to resize my pictures I will post some of the other things that I was working on before my last shoulder surgery. So these are all about 5 months old or so but when I finally get my arm out of the darn sling I will post pics of my new orders and projects.
Here is a little about me, I started doing Small stuff in my house and then a friend of mine wanted me to build his girlfriend at the time a pair of rodeo chaps( the blue ones) this was my first big project and that was two or three years ago. since then things really started to go crazy for me, I built a small leather shop out in my main mechanic shop and sealed it off so it was its own mess. and since then I have made roughly 30 to 35 pairs of chaps from lots of chinks and rodeo chaps to a few pairs of armitas and shotguns. I also do alot of little things like the clipboard covers and bible covers, I do a little bit of saddle repair all mainly for my friends but a few customers in that department every now and then,I have recently been looking into goin to a saddle school as I lost my regular job ( I used to work with Dually) due to the shoulder injury. I do a little of everything except heavy tack because all I have is a small stitcher Once I get my Toro 3000 I will have a fully functional saddle shop.
So that in a nutshell is my leather life story and here are a few of my projects that I have on this computer I will not post anywhere near all of them but if you want to see something specific or if I can help anyone dont be affraid to ask and I will help however I can.
P.S feel free to tell me what you like or dont and give all input youve got either positive negative or constructive critisism, Thanks to all.
