This kidney belt pouch pattern was made by Dark Horse Workshop. The backplate/lid, belt loops, and center strip were all made of 5-6 oz veg-tan and dyed with Green Fiebing's Pro Dye. The dye was airbrushed with the carving masked off, then the carving was given a coat of Fiebings Pro Resist before rubbing the whole thing down with Fiebing's Medium Brown Antique Paste. A final clear coat of Fiebing's Leather Balm with Atom Wax was applied and bused. The antler was cut from a skull gifted to me. The drawstring pouch was made from chocolate brown chrome-tanned upholstery hide. The "stone" set in the lid is acrylic, sourced from a maker on Amazon. -

Carved honeybee veg-tan wallet. Backplate is 5-6oz, the rest is 2-3oz. The artwork is hand-painted with Fiebing's Pro Dye, the rest is airbrushed with the same. Machine sewn on my Juki 1541 (yes, I'm a smidge rusty with my machine skills). -

New leatherworker and I am making some guitar straps for friends and family. My plan is to carve designs into the leather and if possible use paint to make them standout more...which is why we use paint... Anyway, the leather is oil treated chrom tanned leather (Tandy Leather's "Stoned Oil Sides"), will acrylic paint, which is the only paying I've found for leather, bind with the chrome tanned leather or am I going to have to do with plain carvings without color? Thank you for the shared knowledge.

I'm trying out a couple of Angelus paints I got for Xmas. Here is a tool pot - really useful to get tidied up :-) I carved the flame design then just painted. It does the job anyway.

Here are some of the holsters I've done over the years. As I go through and resize my pictures, I'll add more.

Client provided photo of an elk from a game camera and wanted it carved into the shoulder pad. -
Most of the patterns that are in books like the Al Stohlman Belts Galore book and patterns from Tandy don't have hardly any left over room on edges to put a stitching border. It leaves about 1/8 of an inch(if lucky) on each edge of a 1.5 inch wide belt, which is not enough room for any kind of running stitch line. What do I need to do to get that thick stitching border with my pattern on my belts.

This is my first attempt at a leather jacket. I used left over 3oz leather to construct this, trimmed it with 5oz veg-tanned, 100% wool lining and deer antler toggles. This all hand punched and stitched. Any feed back would be appreciated. This is also my first post and I haven't figured the best way of adding photos.

My daughter asked if I could make her a belt, so to the leather store we went. Would you expect anything less as I said she could pick anything she wanted:) I was not expecting it to be $80-100 to make a belt(that was elite pricing). Used light weight saddle skirting(12-13oz) with deertan cowhide lining, nice substantial belt. Been a little while since I posted anything….. What do y'all think????? Allan -
From the album: 'RowneyArt' New Leather Work
I was very pleased to get this piece of work finished and wired up so as the light would shine from behind the 'grasses'. Sadly on its first outing to a prestigious Gallery, the piece 'went missing', for which I barely got an apology and no compensation. I must in future read the small print.....Still I am in the process of producing more and hopefully soon will have some new examples to upload. -
I set out to make a strap for my black SG and this is what I came up with…….. It pained me to dye it black as the carving/tooling detail almost disappeared in the black. I had my mind set on black with white stitching, the studs were an after thought. I have tried the studs on a few cuffs and was going to add them to a strap sooner or later. My daughter told me it is very cool and asked where I got the patern for the studs. I told her it was just what came to me when I started placing them in the open areas, she was impressed. This is the first time I have done a wide border on a strap and happy with the out come. This is a cut to length strap that is meant for one guitar and is really nice without the extra clutter of length adjustment detail. I used 9-10 oz leather with 3-4oz deertan cow for lining, this makes for a substantial strap. The strap locks can be a challenge to get on as you run out of neck on the collar that goes through the strap button hole. I had my machinist friend make me a punch to compress the leather at the mounting area, makes it just thin enough to get the nut on to tighten it down. you can see the compressed leather in the first couple pics. I know the celtic and studs are a different mix, but I think being black it makes it ok. It looks very sharp on the guitar. Thanks for looking Allan
