Just signed up after perusing these forums for a few years, and finding a lot of useful information!
I'm certainly not a seasoned leatherworker, and amateur would be a stretch right now...but, I used to be an avid buckskinner in another life and made my own leather clothing, accouterments, etc. So, working with leather isn't completely foreign to me, it's just been several decades since I've done anything at all really.
Anyway, I look forward to being a part of this forum! Best wishes to All!
