Members Airickjay Posted May 16 Members Report Posted May 16 Hi all, My name is Eric and I live in the state of Michigan. I just started playing around with leatherworking less than a year ago. I bought the tools and leather about two years ago, and it just sat in my basement. I finally finished building my workshop this year, and have stocked it with a clicker press, skiver, and splitter. I started out making small things like keychains and bookmarks, and just recently made a wallet. My next project is going to be a tote bag. My wife is also crafty and we are hoping to hit the craft show circuit when our skills are up to par. Quote

Expand Thanks! They were from the surplus store at the university I live near - I picked them up for $140. The bottoms were water damaged and moldy, so I cut the bottom off and replaced it with a frame on wheels that I can move about the shop. Quote
