I got a 16oz Owden I like for various tooling, it's a tapered poly maul. I wish I would have started with a tapered head maul. They are more relaxing to me while tooling. I also got a 24oz Barry king straight head poly maul, for doing makers stamp, letter stamps, & such. Really like it too. Then I got a Zhongjiang 12oz tapered poly maul that I do most of my tooling with. To me it's my favorite for detail work & it just feels right while using it for extended periods. Lol I also got 1 of them 10.6oz blue light specials, as you could say, that I done a ton of tooling with & still use it for my beveling.

They look great!!! Wish I was that frog, all laid back! Taking it easy!!!

Sorry to hear the bad news. May he live on thru his post's on the forum.

That's Dang Sexy! Nice work. Beautiful folder. I'm hoping to get some machinery next year, so I can try my hand at making a folder. If I wasn't strapped for cash at the moment, I would be putting down a down payment to get my name on the list. Stunning work.

Looks awesome. Nice work!!! Beautiful setup. Love the tool work.

That hand stitched chain stitch looks great. Really makes your project Pop! Looks nice. Thanks.

Nice work it looks great! What is the stitching called showing on the front of the sheath? Thanks. Classy setup!

Another fastner you might look into. Is the LOXX fasteners. Idk if you can use something like them. But they sure are nice.

Nice work! Always nice to see old tools brought back to life. Looks great.

Looks nice. You did a great job. Awesome work.

Looks great soo far. Awesome work! Looks nice.

Look up heavy duty D.O.T snaps. Lol I think that's right. They are fairly high priced.

Excellent work! Very classy. Looks great.

Nice work. Great repair work. Looks nice.

Nice work. They both look great.

Welcome to the group. Bunch of great peeps here. Enjoy.

Looks great! Awesome work! Hats off to both of you. Just stunning.

That collar looks great! Love how you made it with multiple pieces. Nice work.

Check out weaver leather, they got a 4" buckle for weight lifting belts. I'm sure they got 4" loops/D-rings.

Looks great! Nice work! Did you wet form that with a mold? Thanks.

I've made a few knife sheaths, but yes I've also redone/revamped a few of them. I look at it as a learning/teaching aid when I do redo I sheath. Lol i also had some I just did not like & redone. It's good hands on experience.

Looks nice. Great work. That will make a classy knife sheath.

I recommend Steel Stamps Inc. Tim designed my stamp off of pictures. He was great to work with. My stamps turned out awesome & were sent to me in week or less.

Good luck on the show Bruce, I'm hoping next year I can attend a few of them. I just got way too many things going on this year.

Lol I bet it will be all right even if you did.
