[FrenchMich]

Sorry impossible to go on..I can't uplode other pictures.

[sbrownn]

That was great.  Was that from a pattern you made?

[Mulesaw]

Looking really good

Thanks for taking the time to post clear pictures like this to show the progress and in what sequence the tooling is done. I alwyas get too carried away, so even with my best intentions, I rarely manage to take other than a start and a finsihed picture.

I am anxious to se what the yokes will look like completed. Hope you manage to find out how to upload the remaining pictures.

You need to reduce file sizes.  1280 x 768 pixels or there abouts is adequate for photos as the screen resolution on most computers is typically less than 100 dpi.  See this post for helps and suggestions.

Next convex bevelling

Next background, with Barry King 0.45 Bargrounders

Next some details with veiners

 

[FrenchMich]

as you advised me, I resized all my pictures, but  i am stuck again

I checked your file sizes and don't see any problem, even with the first ones you uploaded.  Maybe something on your end with your browser or your ISP?  Sorry I can't test as there is no limit on the size of moderators' uploads.  If you have more to post and can't get through, message me and I'll give you an address to email them to, and I will post them for you with your comments.

Thank you for the close up picture.  It really helped me alot to see the details.   Great work.

[spacedog]

Great step by step progression, and nice use of the bar-grounder tool. Excellent work.

[TomE]

Beautiful work!  I want to see the chaps when finished.

[FrenchMich]

[TomE]

Work of art!  Thanks for sharing.

[FrenchMich]

Thank you TomE

[doubleh]

Excellent.

@FrenchMich A bit late, but the yokes and chaps look absolutely gorgeous.

Attaching the back belt with those "conchos" really look good. Not that I am opposed to attaching them with braiding, but it just looks so elegant with the silver buttons.
There is a potential western chap build in my future to a friend of my oldest son, so I am tempted in trying to do just a little bit of carving thanks to your excellent tutorial. 

Thanks for taking the time to take the pictures and explain the process.

I run into the same problem. I dunno if there's a daily limit or something on top of size. Either way, come back the next day and continue on. 

[DoubleKCustomLeathercraft]

That turned out beautiful. This style of carving is always a struggle for me. I hope to be there someday

[FrenchMich]

I don't come here often, thank you very much
