Ludite Report post Posted May 21, 2009 Hello to all, yet another victim to that incurable plague! Leatherwork!! It`s strange how you look at Hand bags, Cases anything thats leather when out and about , you can`t stop yourself.. If one is not carefully ,one could get arrested on a charge of leather fondling.Anyway The bug bit about a year ago, hopefully if I get this tech stuff right there will be a couple of pic`s of what I`am up at the moment ..

Ludite Report post Posted May 22, 2009 Well Paul... I like your work. Very good stuff!! The pictures are holder and belt for 12 gauge shot gun cartridges for the same client .Holder six shot: the front panel is 9oz backing 6oz loops are 4-5oz and brass rivets every three because the loop is one continuous length any wider spacing causes the loops to slack off when you bend the the belt. belt uses the same weights of leather. the reason for the holder , bigger shot saves hunting around in pockets .In the the belt there`s about three yards of saddle stitching so if you need the practice !! Loop slots cut with 1 1/2 inch oblong every inch. Why so wide? the lad have a bad back. can`t stop a keen sportsman!! Regards Paul Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
