Members machinistchest Posted October 13, 2011 Members Report Posted October 13, 2011 I was commissioned to make this old leather handle for a guy from Canada. He`s restoring an old 1930`s suitcase which will be displayed on the running board of his 1926 Franklin. ...MC Quote

Members benlilly1 Posted October 14, 2011 Members Report Posted October 14, 2011 Very nice... I went to your web site to look. I see you sell split rivets. How are split rivets used? I don't know how they work or anything about them. Thanks Quote

Members Rohn Posted October 21, 2011 Members Report Posted October 21, 2011 Nice job on the handle. I also have a leather handle to make for accordion case. I have never done one before and I hope I can do as good job as you did. Quote
