Members Faridz Muhammad Posted November 18, 2015 Members Report Posted November 18, 2015 Hello everybody! First of all, allow me to introduce myself, I'm Faridz (spelled Far-Distance Ridge-Fridge, if any of you were confused ) I'm a Human from Indonesia, and I've been into this forum for about 3 years now, but just being a silent reader since my english is quite rough sometimes and had not enough confident to post my works, And after all gathering, sucking, and brainfeeding info from this greatest leatherworker forum in the entire galaxy of the milky way (imho), now i'm ready to post some of my works through the years, I hope we can share some thing or two from my works or whether you have any criticize on it! Been loving to work with leather throughout the years now, and would love to make it my primary profession in the future, And nice to know you guys! Hope my works can bring happiness to y'all. You guys could follow me on Instagram @faridzmuhammad, and maybe we can converse there too, Thanks! Enjoy! Here's my mini workshop on my home... Here's a watch strap for a Cerutti 1881 Watch in Nile Crocodile i made about 3 month ago: And here's a little handbag that i made for my mother's birthday: Will continue the post on the next page! Hopefully it didn't count as spam, Quote
Members Faridz Muhammad Posted November 18, 2015 Author Members Report Posted November 18, 2015 Here shows a bifold wallet with fully lined calfskin, Been thinking to tightened up the stitch to 9 Spi... i currently only have a No. 7 Stitching iron... And i think that is a little for me to share, still shaping my edging skills and stitchings, what i learnt is that stitching is not about doing it by hand, but interpreting the rule of thumb between stitch per inch, thread thickness, and distance between the edge, and of course the thickness of the leather, i learnt that those condition needs to be well balanced to get a consistence stitching.... Well, i've talked to much, Hopefully you guys enjoys my works! Thanks!!!!! Quote

Enjoy the journey. Lots of good folks here that will help you along the way. By the way, don't worry about you grasp of the English language, lots of us here speak it as a first language and don't do such a good job at it! Bob Quote
