steve palmieri Report post Posted October 29, 2012 (edited) hi there im new to this forum and new at leather work, looking foward to all the info the site has to offer. I needed a new wallet and did not want one that was made in china and could not afford of custom one from a professional so I took my dads leather working tools that he has long forgotten about and tried my hand at it.....turns out I really liked the process and since heve had a few people request a new wallet for themselves.....so needless to say ive been bitten by the bug and look foward to learning and creating neat new things for myself and my friends Edited October 29, 2012 by steve palmieri Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

steve palmieri Report post Posted October 30, 2012 This is the second wallet I have made....no pattern, just by the seat of my pants, figuring it out as I go. haha my Little brother was in the 82nd airborne and he asked if I could make him a new wallet for xmas. How'd I do? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ijohnson Report post Posted November 3, 2012 That wallet looks great, if it were mine, i would put a finish on it and buff it to shine. It waterproofs the leather and will make it have a shine depending on what finish you use. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
