Contributing Member TwinOaks Posted October 20, 2012 Contributing Member Report Posted October 20, 2012 Wow, first Beaverslayer shows up and now Bonnie is back!!! It's like they're all coming home..... Very nice work on the holsters. I also see some minor things like the corner on the sweat shield for the BDA. That's more aesthetic than anything, but corners can become snags (for shirts) and it's a visual diversion from the smooth lines of the rest of it. I'm pretty sure the old grumpy Mike covered the rest of it. Welcome to Leatherworker.net!

Members Ran Posted October 21, 2012 Author Members Report Posted October 21, 2012 Thanks for all the comments, folks! (especially you fellow 'Cheeseheads'). I know from all my years of fine woodworking that sometimes one needs to take a break and let what he's learned 'soak in' a little. I'm gonna do just that and get back to the leather in a few days again. Kinda funny....my woodworking shop is beginning to look like a leatherworking shop. My tablesaw must be wondering what all that leather is doing draped over it.. Quote
Moderator immiketoo Posted October 21, 2012 Moderator Report Posted October 21, 2012 (edited) Since we have been chatting in the other thread, hello and welcome! I grew up in the Madison area out in the country, so I will take honorary cheesehead status, despite living in Illinois. Plus, my mom lives near Spooner, which isn't too far from you.

Small world, Mike! I used to spend a fair amount of time in Madison in the 'old days,' back when I was in business. Quote
Members DoubleBarP Posted October 23, 2012 Members Report Posted October 23, 2012 Ran: Welcome. There is a lot of knowledge and talent here. Someone is always willing to share... I'm about two hours south (west of Marshfield). I've got to head up to your part of the country real soon to deliver a holster I made for a medically retired Lincoln County Lieutenant who is a friend of mine. You mentioned wanting to get into tooling leather. I'm by no means an expert but I do have a couple of books I'd be willing to loan you as well as a few basic stamps if I have doubles.. Until you can get some of your own.... Let me know or send a PM and I'll see what I can dig up... Double Bar P Quote

I've been looking at more stamps and other tools for leather crafting lately. Not really sure what I want yet. Although I see LOADS of talent and experience in all of these floral patterns, they don't particularly do much for me. I guess I'd like to keep watching videos and looking at pictures here on the forum for a while so I can decide just exactly what trips my trigger.. Randy Quote
