RIP57 Report post Posted March 26, 2013 When I was 8 and 9 years old I use to go next door and learn leather work from an old man one night a week. The old man made belts and wallets, hand carve and stitch them. Now I'm 55 years old and trying to remember what he taught me many years ago. Thanks to this site it is coming back as I read day after day. Now I just need a lot of practise and more time, work keeps getting in the way of progress. Thanks for all ya'lls help.
