AWESOME work !!!! I don't do the box stitch because I am no good at it . If I lay out my stitching holes on the body piece while it is flat , can I then just punch through those with an awl to get inside holes once I have formed and sewn the body up ?????????

If you can stand the price ..... you really can't beat a Starrett !! I bit the bullet and bought one about 10 years into my carpenter career and never looked back !

Saving a compass

Thanks Chuck . No orienteering but around here if you walk a bearing for 30 minutes most likely you will hit some kind of road or trail . -
Looks good .

While digging through some old stuff I found a broken compass ......... hummmm lost the bezel but at least it can be used again .

Very NICE !!!

Where are you going to buy from ? Make a deal with that business for a supply and like any other blade they could be sharpened several times before replacing . If you buy the tool online it most likely will come with a blade and the you are in hot water , good luck

Yes strange , I forget sometimes the differences from country to country . My apologies .

Not as much work as the Pinocchio ( skiving and wet forming ) but you are right about the looks . Good news is it didn't take much to convert it . @fredk I remember my father had hooks like the one you posted . I like to hang my hats but I have heard it is best to lay them crown down on a flat surface , I don't know .

Final iteration ............

Looks good !

The first ( all leather one ) was meant mostly for fun hence Pinocchio and I was surprised when it worked . A little too much skiving and wet molding for what it does so here is version 2.. I will make several to place around the house for convenience , Wool dauber cut and bent , couple of whip stitches ..... much quicker and looks better imo .

and it actually works . Kind of cheesy I know but I wear hats and now I can have hat pegs in every room . I had a little fun with this one but a fellow could do some nice tooling and they would look cooler .
