Members Mattsbagger Posted October 3, 2016 Members Report Posted October 3, 2016 First bag. Done a couple holsters. Been working with leather for 3 weeks. Wife likes it. Lot harder than I thought being a "simple tote". Lol Quote
bikermutt07 Posted October 3, 2016 Report Posted October 3, 2016 Looks good. More pics please. Quote I'm not paying 80 bucks for a belt!!! It's a strip of leather. How hard could it be? 4 years and 3 grand later.... I have a belt I can finally live with. Stitching is like gravy, it's only great if you make it every day. From Texas but in Bossier City, Louisiana.

Resize your files down to 800 x600 pixels. That is adequate and a real bonus for users on limited bandwidth web connections. There is a lot of software and apps out there that you can use to do this, some even web based so you don't have to install anything on your own device. Or depending on what you are using for an email client, you can email the files to yourself. Others put up images on their Facebook, then download the file as a smaller version and paste into their post. Do a Google search to find apps or software or services that suit you. Tom Quote
Members Mattsbagger Posted October 3, 2016 Author Members Report Posted October 3, 2016 That's what I did with the pic of the bag. Stole it off the wife's fb. I usually am just using my phone for everything. I sent her a cpl pics of the holster I made her and had her send back to me via text and then they are small enough to post. Have to get more pics of bag when get home. Finished it late last night. Quote

Members Mattsbagger Posted October 4, 2016 Author Members Report Posted October 4, 2016 Thanks. I am having problems with my stitching if I use an awl. If I use the pricking irons it comes out much better. Quote
