Colt W Knight Report post Posted June 15, 2016 A very good friend of mine as me to make her a photo album for her father, and said put whatever you want on it. I decided to do something different from what I regularly do, so I tooled some Cowboy and Indian scenes on it. Instead of burnishing and dying the edges, I bound the edges with some nice soft black deer skin. The interior is red pig suede with pockets and a three ring binder. After I took this pictures, I realized I missed beveling some lines, so I am going to have to go back and do that. I am not the best Tooler in the world, but I enjoy making things like this. Original artwork by Karen Boylan and Charles Schreyvogel Leather edge binding - This turned out really nice for my first try, and it was much, much easier than I expected. Interior - I tried a multitude of things to trim the interior trim, and just before I finished, I figured out how to do it well. Just free hand cut witha sharp razor while pulling the waste. At first, I tried inserting a backer strip and cutting straight down. Front cover Back Cover Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
