Thor Posted January 2, 2016 Report Posted January 2, 2016 Happy New Year all! This is my last 2015 project a lady wanted for her hubby's 50th birthday coming this month. Due to an injury I'm a bit behind now. With some guidance in regards of materials to use or not to use from my side it was all the lady's choices. Two items are still missing on it. It will have a braided zipper pull and a wallet chain attached to the latch. The outer leather is Harley Davidson clothing leather. A pleasure to touch but a pain to work with. The S is inlaid with Stingray and the outer shell then lined with suede goatskin. Card slots and coin pouch is made from veg tan cowhide. Edges have been heat treated then painted, heat treated... The HD leather is a pita... The concho came from Japan on special order. Sorry the picture is a bit blurry. Dimensions around 19 x 9 x 1.5 cm All comments are welcome. Quote

Thor Posted January 3, 2016 Author Report Posted January 3, 2016 Thanks for the nice comments. Dwight, I'm slowly getting to where I want to. The guy is a life-time biker. I'm looking forward to his birthday and hearing to what he has to say about it. Quote
