Ambassador leatheroo Posted January 16, 2013 Author Ambassador Report Posted January 16, 2013 Thanks for the all the kinds words. I am happy to report that the owner loved the seat. I was very nervous giving it to him, as what he asked for, was a sugar skull with roses and a few swirly things. I was on holidays at the time and it was the only thing i was working on, and i just kept on working on it. My big mistake was with the lacing. I wanted the lacing to show more so i made the top smaller than the bottom. Even though i had the top tied tightly to the bottom, when i started lacing, i found that the top was moving towards where i was lacing and would end up entirely off centre ...doh! So, i unlaced what i have already done and ended up having to lace in small sections opposite each other. So i would lace about 15cm then do the same on the opposite side. Thank goodness that worked, but i wasnt happy with the lacing, it turned out a bit loose. Anyway, the owner was happy with the seat and was happy to pay the extra i charged him. He's a great customer, he never wants a quote..."charge me what its worth"...he tells me! cheers caroline Quote "]http://leatheroo.blogspot
Members Cyberthrasher Posted January 16, 2013 Members Report Posted January 16, 2013 I think you may have inspired me to quit with this one. I love customers like that, but with this kind of work........ Quote hellhoundkustoms.wordpress.com www.facebook.com/hellhoundkustoms www.etsy.com/shop/HellhoundKustoms
Members Tina Posted January 17, 2013 Members Report Posted January 17, 2013 All I can say: Fantastic Roo, you really made this seat to something extra ordinary, beautiful...

Members Imapeopleperson Posted January 17, 2013 Members Report Posted January 17, 2013 That's a nice looking seat Quote
Members digdug18 Posted January 26, 2013 Members Report Posted January 26, 2013 Just curious what you used for the seat padding material? Or is there no padding at all there? Can't tell on the thickness myself. Quote
Members MakerUnknown Posted January 26, 2013 Members Report Posted January 26, 2013 Wow! That is sweet! Quote http://cargocollective.com/makerunknown
