benlilly1 Report post 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 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rohn Report post 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 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
