silkfatblues Report post Posted May 8, 2016 Madmax22 is right... I printed out the drawing (the pic of the guys tattoo), adjusted it to fit my design and the shape of the seat, and just used the tool that is usually used for background... Simple but effective... here is the previous work I did... Just a teaser for now cheers, s Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
silkfatblues Report post Posted June 6, 2016 Hi all! here is another simple seat. This one was carved and engraved and then painted with acrylic paint. Then I used some sanding paper to make that red painted parts more interesting... cheers, s oh yes, and the wallet, simple but cool combo with the seat...

JMWendt Report post Posted June 6, 2016 So I'm wondering about your technique on the corner of your attached front pockets. Can you describe how you do this? I don't understand the fold and stitching and would like to know more about the method. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ok, i will try to explain but I think photos would work better So, this small piece from the corner to the back is 1,5 cm wide piece of leather. You stitch that in to the corner and the stitches are obviously from the inside... Than you turn it upside down and use a hammer to flatten it a bit... Latter you can use water to reshape it and lacquering for water resistant stuff and so on... Hope I helped cheers, S Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd sure like to see the whole process from start to finish. How about a picture of the inside of the corner and how it attaches to the bag? That might be all I need to "get it." I do appreciate the information. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
silkfatblues Report post Posted January 31, 2018 Hi all, sorry for being away for so long. Had a couple floods in my workshop and home, some larger orders to handle, I had put a lot of custom work aside... I am kind of getting back at it... Now I see again most of the pics from this new thread are gone again... any cure for that? any suggestions? What is better, links from flick, fb, or uploading here? Any advice helps, tnx! just a few pics from a simple seat I made yesterday... Cheers!!! Silvio Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes, I got contacted by moderators and they explained... I thought I was saving them web space by uploading on flickr. Honest mistake Cheers, S Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
