Members Spider Posted July 2, 2009 Members Report Posted July 2, 2009 These are nice. I didn't know what they were for till you showed the second picture. It's funny how so many thing we don't know about but need are made of leather. It's just awesome when you can decorate even the smallest things.

Members wood Posted July 3, 2009 Members Report Posted July 3, 2009 Look really good. I always had an issue with slobber straps not having enough room to do any tooling but I really like this, it's simple yet adds something to the straps. Good job.

MarkB Posted July 3, 2009 Author Report Posted July 3, 2009 Thanks Spider Your very right we don't really know how many thing that are made from leather that we need or can use. I see things on this site that amaze me that are from leather. Thanks again Wood I to have had that same issue. This pattern works well and have used it on spur straps that or smaller like a lady's or youth size with great success Thanks your comments Mark Quote Visit My Website To succeed you must try, Not trying your sure to fail.
