New here (and new at leatherwork)

[butchmutt]

Hiya, my name's Milo, I'm based in Glasgow and just getting started out with leatherwork proper. I've done a few repairs to broken accessories, replaced some buckles and the like, and am just getting started on making my own stuff from scratch

My background coming into this is the world of kink and leatherfolk, where I run some events including for folk who appreciate leather gear and clothing. I don't know how common a background that is here but I'm sure many of you will have encountered us at one point or another. I know how to sew and some basic garment construction, how to care for leather items and repair leather, and other crafting bits and bobs. My main desire is to make accessories, harnesses, cuffs, etc. I'm just getting started on my first projects making some cuffs and keyrings, as well as my first big project which is a boot harness.

Really glad to see a forum like this exists and it's really cool to see everyone's projects! I'm looking forward to learning a lot.

Welcome aboard. You've found the very best place on the net to learn about any and all aspects of Leathercraft. It was pretty much the first place I landed a few years ago.

For the adult stuff, we keep that in the sub forum at https://leatherworker.net/forum/forum/46-oh-no-dont-stop/

You'll need the secret password to enter, which is "adult" without the quotes. The password just keeps it from showing up in the regular flow of more family friendly content. 

Have fun!
