Members intothebush Posted June 7, 2013 Members Report Posted June 7, 2013 (edited) I stumbled upon this web site that has free d/l of leather books, most of them are old book with lots of patterns. Leathercraft has patterns for billfold, cigarette case, key container, tobacco pouch, book cover, belts and so on. I provide a few books that you can download in .pdf format and there is other formats which can be d/l to. There is also videos and audio on "leather" as well, here is the link to the site with the word leather is already searched. http://archive.org/s...p?query=leather Hope you guy enjoys this, Thanks for looking.

Members FlHobbyist Posted June 9, 2013 Members Report Posted June 9, 2013 I took a quick look at LEATHERCRAFT FOR AMATEYRS and it had some interesting ideas for patterns and things that could be done, as well as stitching instructions. It is definately worth the price Thanks for sharing, and the link to archive.org Quote
Members hornm Posted June 10, 2013 Members Report Posted June 10, 2013 Yes. Many thanks. I'm always on the lookout for free media that might just have another idea (or cause one) Michael Quote Michael "If the women don't find you handsome, they should at least find you handy" Red Green

Members Gregory Posted February 10, 2014 Members Report Posted February 10, 2014 I read through the entire 137 page Eleonore Bang amateur file. Lots of interesting stuff. My wife may disagree that leather craft is "nearly silent and non-irritating" as a tap and mallet away... Quote
