  1. Them look great to me. I appreciate your time & knowledge. Great work.
  2. Yes I do. I got a set of petal lifters, including 1 hand lifter, & a set of modeling tools. Lol I've been buying lots of tools.
  3. Thanks very much. I have been looking for a small head knife & that is perfect for me. Thanks again.
  4. Thanks RockRash I appreciate it. Looks like a nice knife. What does it measure from tip to tip if you dont mind? Thanks.
  5. Nice looking sheath! Love the tool work. May I ask, what brand is your leather knife? Thanks.
  6. Guys & gals I'm curious if any of you have used veg tan water buffalo? It looks like most is sold in the 8-10oz thicknesses. I love the look of the leather & just curious of it uses. Would it be ok for single layer belt? Or should it be a lined belt? Would it work for bags/backpacks? Thanks any & all help will be appreciated.
  7. I cant remember where I seen it, but I put some silicone based oil on the glue container threads with my finger. Seems to work for me, maybe not the right way. But since I started this I've wasted less glue.
  8. Beautiful looking piece. Great work. I hope to get into making stuff like that someday. Thanks for sharing.
  9. Yeah I learned that 1 the hard way. Had a older side of leather & it took on a deeper dye color than the newer side of leather I cut a few remaining pieces out of to finish the project. Nothing horrible, but you could tell a slight color difference between the two.
  10. Yep sure does. I'll try & get around to tooling some more later today. We will see if they turn out. Thanks I really appreciate everything.
  11. Lol I think I read that article, where a person went A-wall over other options & suggestions for a leather sealer. Lol I'm not that guy! I was going to ask about mop & glo, but was unsure. I'll look next time I'm in the store. I got a quart of tandy eco-flo super shene sealer, I just dont know if it will work with the fiebings pro dye. Thanks I appreciate your time & knowledge.
  12. Thanks. So are you saying you would use a stylus for the veined/lined wing sections? Thanks I appreciate your input.
  13. Thanks for the info, I appreciate it. I'm horrible at drawing too. I think I just need more practice with the swivel knife.
  14. Yeah I dont have anything & it's too cold to ship. So I was trying to come up with something to use.
  15. Great looking tote bag. You do nice work. Love the purple/blue straps. What color do they call that? Its sharp! Thanks.
  16. Nice looking group of fine looking wallets there. Great work. Very nice.
  17. Also forgot to add I believe they come with a acrylic grid template for a straight & angled weave patterns.
  18. Guys & gals I ran across these leather weaving punches & thought I would share them on here. How cool are these? Beautiful weave pattern. Any of you professional leather crafters seen these or used them? Sorry for no link. But here is a pic. I think I'll order a set & see how bad I might cuss them or like them. LOL!
  19. The big oval stamp is a 1⅜long by 1"tall. The small oval stamp is 7/8"long by 5/8" tall. Nothing fancy thou. Straight oval border with name & location.
  20. I went with SteelStampsinc to make them. I had 2 different styles made. Both oval shaped. 1 large & 1 small stamp. I cant wait to get them, supposed to show up around the 10th of January.
  21. Guys & gals, I have been wanting to try Fiebings Pro Dye, cause it looks like good stuff. My question is: What Seal or Top coat sealer options do I have? Most all top coat/sealers will freeze. So that wont be a option till spring. Can I use the aerosol Fiebings Leather Sheen or the aerosol Fiebings Saddle Lac? What options do I have? Thanks any & all help will be appreciated.
  22. I'll do that. Lol now I want some custom stamps made. But at $200-$250 each I'll only get a couple, if they will even make what I want.
  23. Thanks I appreciate the info & your knowledge. I do my knife sheaths & 6 shooter holsters about the same. But I never have that thick of welt. How do you remove all your extra welt on the outside? Thanks.
  24. Guys & gals. I got my makers mark stamp all designed today. Cant wait to get it. Lmao that stamp was tall priced!!!
