Steampunk Phone Holster

[Airth]

I haven't posted in quite awhile, but wanted to show a little progress thanks to those I've conferred with here.  Attached is a "steampunk" styled phone holster/wallet sized to fit an iPhone 6+.  It's all hand cut, tooled and sewn out of veg-tanned 4-5 oz leather, and finished in tan gel antique.  The front pocket is large enough to hold an ID, some cards and cash, so it's essentially a minimalist wallet one can wear on their belt.

Thanks for looking, and thanks for your feedback!

Cool, great job on the tooling. Looks time consuming (not that any tooling isnt). 

I really like that backgrounder, use it whenever I get the chance.

Cool.

Nicely done! Did you use the stamps for the gears or are those all hand cut/tooled/etc? Also how did you get the background on the inside of the gears? I am very impressed!

Thank you!  I used stamps and craft aides to get the outlines for the gears, then cut them out and tooled them.  I use a single chisel punch to cut them, as the smaller ones are too fine for a swivel knife.  The backgrounder is just angled sharply for the interior of the gears.

Thanks for the feedback, everyone!
