W Montgomery Report post Posted August 12, 2014 Hello. I've had an account here for about a month, but it's taken until now to introduce myself. Over the last six months or so I've often sourced information and advice from this forum, it's been extremely useful, so thanks to all those who take the time to share their knowledge and resources. I've been working with leather for around eight months, but have only been able to get any regular hours in over the last two. Now I've set myself up self-employed and I've started to sell my work. I'm still experimenting with different approaches towards leather work and seem to learn something new with every project. Any ideas on how to improve my work would always be appreciated, and I hope to be able to offer help for others. I'm just putting together a gallery on my profile. Anyway, thanks in advance. Billy. London, UK. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

W Montgomery Report post Posted August 13, 2014 Thanks for the welcome. Mark, I just had a quick look at your site. Very impressive work. I've always found inspiration in british wildlife. I'll have a longer look through once I finish work. Cheers. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
