Thanks Corey! Actually, I think you can make a decent profit (as a hobby, I have no experience with leatherworking as a full time job), but first you have to get past the initial expense of tool buying and the learning curve.

[Wild Bill46]

Yeah Corey,

Monica is right ! Once your past the ooh's an aawh's, and the need for this tool or that. you'll see;

an almost calm concentration, and satisfaction too, Then you can set about real ctaftsmanship !

In the meanwhile try to Relax and Enjoy your newness to leather.

Its really a super great medium ! -------- Wild Bill46

I'm one of those people who has about ten interests but time for about two at any one time.

I'm in the same boat with you on this one! Chainmail, video games, model rockets, flying RC 'toys' and I'm considering taking up falconry. I may be insane.

Chain;

Leatherworking has a calming effect on many folks, maybe your one of then, keep at it, you'll see !

but, crazy, you got me there man ? ----------- Wild Bill46

I suspect a certain amount of insanity is a form of fuel for many of the folks who work at such hobbies

I should be finishing up the final edit on my book tonight or tomorrow night. I figure I'll be working with the leather on Saturday, which gets me thinking: it would be nice if there was a group of folks in my area (Keplerts?). Has anyone one else started one? Anyone have any tips on starting something like that? I do better in a herd. (Ha)

[InfiniteChain]

Hmm, I'm not sure. I'm really new to the hobby and forums. Try posting in the appropriate place to see if there are any local meetups or such. I'm in Minnesota, so I have no idea where Keplerts is. Sorry!

[LANMind]

Keplerts is a bit closer than you are He/She/They are about an hour away.

Can I friend you on FB?

[InfiniteChain]

Oh, Keplerts is a person? LOL. I thought that was where you were from.

The FB link in my signature is my chainmail page. Feel free to like it. I'm hoping to incorporate my chainmail and leather together. My personal FB page is /NovusGuitar.
