20benji Report post Posted December 31, 2012 Hello everyone, I am yet another newbie on the forum. I started researching the craft about one month ago, which is about the time I started lurking, and finally got my tools on the 28th; figure it's about time I introduced myself. As of now I don't have a specialty, it's a little soon for that, but I have found the small tooling that I have done quite enjoyable. I have completed one design of a Koi (http://dl.dropbox.co...77/IMG_3075.JPG), which felt very natural, and I am just starting to pick up floral carving. Any criticism will be well received as I certainly need it. Just thought I'd say hello, seeing as this forum has already been very helpful. (Tools, Carving, Tooling, etc.) Cheers, Benji.

immiketoo Report post Posted December 31, 2012 Benji, WELCOME! Its great to see new leather workers. If you are anything like the rest of us, it quickly becomes a passion, or in some cases and addiction! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
