Hi everyone I am a newbe to all of this so I will most likely ask some dumb questions so be gentle with me.

Welcome Phil

IMO, you have found the best leather site on the internet. There are no stupid questions, so ask away and enjoy the ride.

Welcome to the forum. Look around and get comfortable. You will not be a newbie for long!

[PD186]

Thanks for the welcome

I have had a look around and there is some great stuff but I was looking for some ideas to practice on but could not find much.

Any suggestions on easy projects would be great as I am going to the local leather craft suppler on the weekend to get some offcuts for practice.

I have a idea for a round coaster that I would like to try but I think it may be a little hard with limited tools what do you think?

Yes I need to clean it up a little but you will get the idea of what I want to do.

Welcome to as others have said the best leather forum on the web.

Now it depends on how limited your tools are but than can be accomplished with minimal tools. Always try it out on some scrap leather. Once you get the pattern onto the leather and start working with the knife and other tools you will see how easy it is. If you have some deer foot tools they are a help in this and would work well.
