Members Paulsleather Posted November 6, 2015 Members Report Posted November 6, 2015 in particular, the edges and gusset stitching shows a VERY high degree of skill and craftsmanship. Please keep posting your work. I also would enjoy seeing the interior. Outstanding! Quote
Members Carrieanna1172 Posted February 16, 2016 Members Report Posted February 16, 2016 Really beautiful work! Quote
Members Rannoch Posted February 16, 2016 Members Report Posted February 16, 2016 The stitching is amazing. Beautiful. Quote
Members skalpel Posted February 16, 2016 Author Members Report Posted February 16, 2016 Thank you very much for your words! Did you use the 3,5mm leather for the gusset as well? It's the same leather but i split it to 1,5-1,8mm Quote
Members AndersenLeather Posted February 16, 2016 Members Report Posted February 16, 2016 Thank you very much for your words! It's the same leather but i split it to 1,5-1,8mm Yes 3,5mm for the gusset would be way too thick. What kind of splitter did you use? Quote
Members skalpel Posted February 16, 2016 Author Members Report Posted February 16, 2016 I don't know I sent these pices to a big leather company and they split it for me. Quote
Members AndersenLeather Posted February 16, 2016 Members Report Posted February 16, 2016 I don't know I sent these pices to a big leather company and they split it for me. Ahh I see. That is great. I wish similar options were available in my country. Quote
Members Rannoch Posted March 7, 2016 Members Report Posted March 7, 2016 Would you give us some photos of the interior? Is this your own design? Quote
Members skalpel Posted March 8, 2016 Author Members Report Posted March 8, 2016 nothing special... This design is very old, was created before the WWII Quote
