Members chestercheeto Posted February 3, 2009 Members Report Posted February 3, 2009 Hello everyone.I`m a newbie from Canada.My Dad passed away and I inherited all his leather tools and stuff.I was going to sell it all...but months later I decided to give it a try.So I`m learning the finer points of leathercrafting and learning from mistakes.I`m sure I`ll get better as time goes on with practice.I found this great forum and have been reading over all the wonderful tips and looking at all the great work from everyone.It`ll be awhile before I get as good...lol. Glad to be here..thanks all. Quote
