12bar Report post Posted June 28, 2013 Hi all, I learned a little about leatherwork a very long time ago (45 years ago) from my stepfather but never really pursued it. He was a very talented individual and when he passed I got all his tools. I was going through the closet the other day looking for something else and came across the tools and a flood of memories. This prompted me to make a trip up to the Tandy store in Tampa today to pick up some tools I knew were missing and try my hand at leatherwork. I know very little and am looking forward to learning from the experienced folks on this site. I also make glass beads (lampworking) and hope to find ways to incorporate them into this medium.
