luxefaire Report post Posted August 1, 2014 Hi its Bill Gallagher, my specialty is cases, but I do a lot more, some apparel, tooled and handstitched wallets, the like. Thanks for having me. My site is luxefaire.com and my favorite leather to work is English Bridle from Wickett and Craig. I learned metal casting because I wanted to make my own hardware. I am studying with a master wood worker now, and have also taken instruction cutting gems in many places too, most notably with Danny Lopacki of Cliff NM, and Ed Sankovich of Tampa. I try to unite leather, metal, stone and wood in my art. My overall goal is to create something beautiful and of great utility which will be used hard for a century or so, then become collectible; what I do is start art, use will finish it. Everytime. b Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
