New From Belgium

Recommended Posts

Hy to all,

My name is Nico but some friends call me Chico as you can see on my avatar.

I live in Belgium, near Antwerp and Brussels (that is because Belgium is such a small country :cowboy: )and i'm pretty new to leatherwork, i started practice one year ago.

A couple years ago, i followed a course to learn uphollstery (car seats) but i didn't learn what i was expecting, so after a while i went to a open house in a craft school and started a course handbags and purses to learn how to stitch properly.

Never heard before about "tooling leather" but my teacher showed me some things he have made and i whas bitten!!

I'm into the kustom scene (traditional hotrods and bikes) and most of my work so far is related to this scene.

I hope you like it but offcourse feel free to comment, good or bad...i can handle that!!

regards Chico
