BearMan Report post Posted February 27, 2010 Hi, It's been a while since I've seen anything from you. But it looks like You're coming along pretty good. I see improvement with each new project. Your stitching is looking lots better,,, but You may want to work on the edges a little more. If You haven't seen it yet,,, Bob Parks, "Edges" tutorial will help a Lot! Keep up the good work!

azrider Report post Posted February 28, 2010 Thanks all. I have actually been making a lot, but haven't posted pictures of all of it. I also have this pesky job I have to go to every day that really cuts into my leatherworking time. I will probably put a post up in the next few days with some pictures and questions on edging, so as not to hijack Bob Park's tutorial. Belive it or not, this has some of the best edges I have done. The hard part for me has been where the leather is glued together, and the glue sticks up. I don't use dye on them, mainly because I am not good at holding steady enough to avoid getting it on the surface. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
