Effuse Report post Posted July 26, 2013 Hey everyone, New to the world of leather working and these forums. I just have to say though I never thought I would get this addicted to making things out of leather. I've only made a couple small things so far but my entire time at work I'm thinking about coming home to start something else or thinking of a different way to do something.I think some of my other hobbies are going to take a back seat for a while. ^_^ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LNLeather Report post Posted July 27, 2013 Just wait until the tool fetish kicks in, then you and your wallet are toast! I got a good laugh when I read this - You Are So Right.... I keep thinking I have enough supplies and tools, but I keep finding more (old and new) tools I want... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WinterBear Report post Posted July 27, 2013 Toast? The last few times I got tools, the wallet was under the bed and crying miserably. But I'm having too much fun learning this stuff. : ) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

raysouth Report post Posted July 31, 2013 (edited) Addiction????? How can that be? lol. Decided to check on a few items yesterday and I think I now have more leather than the nearest Tandy. How did that happen?? Little bit of everything from more places than I can remember. May have to start using it soon. Tools are overflowing but I still want more, for some reason. Always have enjoyed having good tools around. A fetish, I suppose. I'm one of those that goes ape if I see someone using one of my tools in an improper manner, ie; screwdriver as a chisel or prybar. Drives me up a wall. lol. So easy to fall into a "gotta have it" trap when we enjoy what we do. Not a bad thing, at least on my end. Keep on "gathering" and one day you will wonder how it all got there. Have fun. God Bless. Ray Edited July 31, 2013 by raysouth Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
