Tina Report post Posted February 12, 2009 If memory serves, I think it was Tina that started it and it just snowballed from there. As for my part in this one, I'm just trying to help out here any way I can. I was glad to do it, and am certainly willing to help in future PIFs. Yeah:-) I got a photo album in the mail from ClayB and thought...Not all people can travell to shows so this PIF (paying it forward, I borrowed the titel from the movie) was a good opportunity to be able to see, feel investigate if you like other peoples work closeup, to learn from and it's at the same time very social:-) But, even if I planted the first idea, it could not have been as good as it is without people keeping it alive like Wildrose and TwinOaks so lets keep them happy so this continues for a looooong time to come. Thanks massive both of you:-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Elegant Report post Posted February 17, 2009 I received three fabulous items from ta2r. Woot! A sherdian tooled notepad cover, a sheridan tooled coffee cup wrap (I am a coffee-holic) and a leather feather (which was immediately put on the mantle with our collection of real feathers). I do not do sheridan style tooling so these items are now very special to me. The man was apologetic about the work, stating he was not a professional. Pshaw, the work is top-notch. My camera is broken but I will get pics up soon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wildrose Report post Posted February 18, 2009 WOW! doesn't even come close to how I feel about mine from MADMAX22. This beautiful piece will be hanging by my front door in no time. I want to know, though, what did you use for the backgrounding? Some kind of "pebbler" that I don't have, but I think I'm going to buy it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Elegant Report post Posted February 19, 2009 Found a temporary camera so I can post pics of the goodies that tatr sent me. A sherdian tooled notepad cover, a sheridan tooled coffee cup wrap (I am a coffee-holic) and a leather feather (which was immediately put on the mantle with our collection of real feathers). I do not do sheridan style tooling so these items are now very special to me. Love, Love, Love Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

UKRay Report post Posted February 24, 2009 A box of treasures arrived on my doorstep, all the way from carr52 in sunny South Carolina, and I just have to show you guys what was inside. This lot must have taken literally hours of work... Tom, what can I say. A beautiful natural coloured plaited belt, very nicely finished off - no less than two very elegantly carved wallets and a very clever zipper purse complete with a real gold paint job! A wristband, three deer horns to make into a creaser, a slicker and a folder and some superb knotted buttons along with a really neat holder for my fishing pliers and a tiny pair of leather cuff links! You rock, fellah and I can't thank you enough! Would you believe that this guy asked me for a critique - impossible, it is all excellent! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
