Johanna Report post Posted May 7, 2011 Barry King makes great tools at affordable prices, you don't have to wait a year to get them, and he's a really nice guy. Please please tell Barry that you appreciate him helping to sponsor LW. We couldn't pay our bills without the companies you see the banners for, and we are grateful for them all. ~J Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rickeyfro Report post Posted May 7, 2011 Are you refering to the Lattice stamp? I have one of those on the way, pretty interesting idea, think I'll have plenty of use for this one on seats hey thanks for the heads up i got to see his new basket weave tool as a prototype in Chan Geer's class last year(september). i have been waitng for barry king to list it on his website since last september. i just ordered the basket weave tool last nite.

leatherjunkie Report post Posted May 8, 2011 Are you refering to the Lattice stamp? I have one of those on the way, pretty interesting idea, think I'll have plenty of use for this one on seats Yep thats the one. i ordered #2. #1 seams too small for what i do and #3 may be too big for me. but i probably will order all of them after i play with it awhile. Chan Geer demo'd this in his sheridan carving class last year. He stamped it then rotated it 90 degrees and lined the legs up into the stamped one, rotated 90 degrees and repeated it. it makes a very nice basketweave design. it may be easier to line up this stamp than the traditional basketweave stamps. i will always use the traditonal design basketweave stamps. Chan Geer also demo'd another great basketweave stamp from hides to art. they make great impressions just like barry king stamps. just look up hides to art to see the different stamps they have.

dirtclod Report post Posted May 8, 2011 I wish he would do a little bit of pattern with that stamp and few more so a person could see what they look like. I'd like to get some tools from him but that $8.00 to send one stamp that weighs a few ounces is just to much for me and i'm sure for other folks to.

I'm gonna be ordering one of his french edgers in the very near future. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dirtclod Report post Posted May 8, 2011 Thanks, Rickyfro i didn't know it would that. I did go over the pattern and it looks neat. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The post office will pick it up just like UPS and they have tracking to. When i have ordered and the tools were sent UPS it took at least a week to get here the post office would of been 3 days tops plus it's cheaper. I send things all over the US with Priority Mail and the only time it has took longer than 3 days was right at Christmas. I really like the swivel knife and blades i have gotten from Barry.
