Members jessebeckham Posted June 29, 2013 Members Report Posted June 29, 2013 Whelp, this is my first attempt at Sheridan carving. Please note I did not design it... I am a loooonnnggg way for getting that figured out. But I feel like it turned out pretty good considering. Note that I screwed up... The left side i cut the border in, and dint not plan to do that, guess i was really in the zone while cutting. Quote

Members 12bar Posted July 2, 2013 Members Report Posted July 2, 2013 If I could ever achieve that level I would be very happy....you done good. Yep that pretty much sums it up for me, if I could do something like that I would be dancing in the street and I don't dance Quote
Members lightingale Posted July 4, 2013 Members Report Posted July 4, 2013 Holy cow.. THAT'S your first attempt?!? Geez, at that rate you'll be a pro by your fifth project, coaching the rest of us! Nice work! Quote Salukifeathers.com
Members jessebeckham Posted July 4, 2013 Author Members Report Posted July 4, 2013 Well... To be perfectly honest... I did do a small 4"x4" peice to check how the new Sheridan tools functioned. I contemplated practicing some more before I started the peice above, but figured if I'm gonna learn it I better just start head first. And also.... Thanks for the complements!! It really helps my mindset. I don't really know any leather workers others than the forum here, so you guys and gals are really a lot if help with your comments, suggestions, and critiques. Quote
Members Dwight Posted July 4, 2013 Members Report Posted July 4, 2013 If you had not owned up to a mistake, . . . I would not have known it, . . . I would have thought that you did it that way for a reason. Good job, too, . . . and I'll echo some of the others, . . . it's far above my food chain permit. Sewing, cutting, sanding, molding, even designing, . . . I can do, . . . this, thankfully others like yourself are talented at. May God bless, Dwight Quote If you can breathe, . . . thank God. If you can read, . . . thank a teacher. If you are reading this in English, . . . thank a veteran. www.dwightsgunleather.com
