strudell Report post Posted April 15, 2013 Hi all, I have probably been on this forum for about a year now and never introduced myself. All my posts so far have been nothing but questions for which I've received nothing but good answers. I thought I should take a moment to post a bit of my work. I'm currently based out of British Columbia, working in forestry during the season and found leather 1 year ago this month by looking for both a hobby/craft to do after work, and during the off season. After tooling around in hotel rooms and picnic tables and patios I finally got a shop this winter and was able to upgrade my systems. I am focused on casemaking now, though I started with smaller objects such as wallets and belts. Here are some pictures from the last few months of work. I just want to say a quick thanks to everyone on this forum, I believe this board is really a driving force in keeping leatherwork relevant and accesible in these modern times. Everything I've learned is from the Stohlman books and this website. I've spent less than five minutes talking to other leatherworkers in person, and I hope my work speaks to the quality of content on this website. Cheers!
