Moderator immiketoo Posted March 31, 2014 Moderator Report Posted March 31, 2014 The customer wanted green snowflakes. The color matches the guitar pretty closely, but it was difficult to do from a picture. Quote Learnleather.com
Contributing Member JLSleather Posted March 31, 2014 Contributing Member Report Posted March 31, 2014 Not gittin' the green snowflake thing, but that stitchin' is looking purdy! Then the inlay around the guitar seems to tie it in a bit, so maybe the customer really does know SOMEtimes Quote "Observation is 9/10 of the law." IF what you do is something that ANYBODY can do, then don't be surprised when ANYBODY does.

Moderator immiketoo Posted March 31, 2014 Author Moderator Report Posted March 31, 2014 Jeff, the guitar has snowflakes on the freeboard and green abalone purling. Who am I to say no? BDAZ, I charged $250.00 for this strap. Bluesman, I used a Marlin stitch groover to make the groove. It cuts a nice channel Quote Learnleather.com
Members Bluesman Posted March 31, 2014 Members Report Posted March 31, 2014 I looked up Marlin stitch groover and din't come up with anything. I just ordered the Versa Groover from Douglas. That channel is the best. Quote If it ain't moving and should......WD40, If it's moving and shouldn't....Duct Tape. There you have it, now fix something
