Ta2ooz Report post Posted January 11, 2015 Hello everybody I live in Cloverdale, a suburb of vancouver. I am a cub leader and am looking to make some slick knife sheaths and outdoor equipment. Mostly leather but may dive into some of the thermoplastics like kydex. I ride and was thinking I may want to do a set of chaps or possible vest, wallet, you know most likely the usual stuff every newb wants to make. I am as green as they come in leather but have made a ton of othe little projects of varrying difficulty. Automotive tech by trade and was thinking I just need another addiction in my life to squeeze the funds out of my wallet. Lol. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
leatherwytch Report post Posted January 11, 2015 Welcome to the land of addicts that never will be cured. If you want funds squeezed out of your wallet this is the place to come. Many times you will find quite a few of us in the Chat, we discuss anything and everything. We joke around and like myself, there are sometimes other Canadians in there too. We have people from all over the world and I may have been in this forever but I learn things from everyone on here. You have come to the best forum on the net We try to help everyone who comes in with a question, including people who ruin their brand new dress shoes.

Ta2ooz Report post Posted January 16, 2015 Thanks for the warm welcomes. Went to my local Tandy store today, they have a ton of stuff, didn't know what to get so I picked up some practice pieces and remnants, let's see how it goes. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
camano ridge Report post Posted January 16, 2015 Welcome from just south of the border from you. Pick out a few starter projects you want to do and we can guide you in tool selection etc. It is easy to buy stuff you don't need. Start out with the basics and build as you identify your needs.
