CFM chuck123wapati Posted November 28, 2023 CFM Report Posted November 28, 2023 That is very cool work!!

I don’t do these things to other people, and I require the same from them.” THE DUKE!

Members Dwight Posted November 28, 2023 Members Report Posted November 28, 2023 At 79 yrs . . . I've kinda given up on basket weave and it's associated brethren . . . just cannot get the knack. I do beat on leather occasionally . . . (some call it stamping . . . lol ) . . . and I've never really acquired that knack either . . . but so far I haven't had any super complaints. But then again . . . I'm kind of dressing for an audience of simple expectations. Anyway . . . braver than I am . . . for sure . . . the originator. May God bless, Dwight Quote If you can breathe, . . . thank God. If you can read, . . . thank a teacher. If you are reading this in English, . . . thank a veteran. www.dwightsgunleather.com
