Members George B Posted February 6, 2014 Members Report Posted February 6, 2014 Bowman saddle and let me just say I sweat like a pig with every piece I cut. Once I started came the realization that if I missed up it would be an expensive mistake. Took me 2 months and ended up selling the saddle at a good profit. Switched to gun leather, quicker gratification and if I screwed up it cost less. Quote
Members mrLloyd Posted February 11, 2014 Members Report Posted February 11, 2014 4H introduced me to it, though both father and mother dabbled in leathercraft many years ago i later found out. First project was the keyfob and coin purse kits from tandy. Quote -mrLloyd "Always do Sober, what you said you'd do drunk. That'll teach you to keep your mouth shut" - E.

Members Tinkerton Posted March 30, 2014 Members Report Posted March 30, 2014 It was a pocket slip for a friend of mine. Wasn't terribly pretty, and a lot of glaring errors, but he was happy with it. Am beginning my third project now. Quote
Members evensteven Posted April 1, 2014 Members Report Posted April 1, 2014 My first project was a quiver I made in a High School crafts class in 1964. Quote
Members humperdingle Posted April 1, 2014 Members Report Posted April 1, 2014 A little possibles bag which took me pretty much a whole day! Re-made the exact design recently, looking much neater and only took a couple of hours and zero sweat :D Quote
