Members Blackspar Posted January 7, 2013 Members Report Posted January 7, 2013 Hi guys, so I got bitten badly by the leather craft bug and is just starting off. Can someone please email me or direct me to where I can find a pattern for a men’s wallet? Thanks Quote

Members Cyberthrasher Posted January 7, 2013 Members Report Posted January 7, 2013 (edited) This one from Electrathon is one of the best I've seen. With some minor tweaks it's become my primary template. Read through some of the other comments on that thread for some more tips and information too. http://leatherworker...=15#entry205112 Edited January 7, 2013 by Cyberthrasher Quote
Members Sylvia Posted January 7, 2013 Members Report Posted January 7, 2013 Ok, here is one tutorial that might help. It's made from soft leather and I don't care for the way he did the stitching. http://artofmanliness.com/2011/02/24/weekend-diy-project-how-to-make-a-leather-wallet/ Here's another tutorial. For a more common type bi-fold. yeah yeah... I know you said pattern..... There are several in in the PDF for "billfolds" here. http://elktracks.net/free-patterns.html Quote

Members Blackspar Posted January 11, 2013 Author Members Report Posted January 11, 2013 This is a great project for a beginner like me, any other good beginner projects that can be recommended? Quote
Members Cyberthrasher Posted January 11, 2013 Members Report Posted January 11, 2013 Bracelets are fun to tool and learn how to get sizing right. Gives you lots of practice in fitting/measuring, tooling smaller areas, and the best part is you can use scrap for most of it Quote
