Members Wedgetail Posted November 6, 2016 Members Report Posted November 6, 2016 Getting started on this year's batch of Christmas presents for the family... about 10 more to go, and then the wife will do some baking. The brown coloured are from Tandy's Austin double shoulders, which I used my bench skiver to reduce the thickness to about 1.2mm. The burgundy is latigo. Solid brass Dee rings. Double capped rivets. Brass split rings. Quote
Members Wedgetail Posted November 7, 2016 Author Members Report Posted November 7, 2016 Thanks mate, I'll say one thing. The Austin double shoulders are really soft and flexible. So when you thin them down, and hit them with leather conditioner, I super easy to braid them! The stuff is a real pleasure to work with. Quote

Expand Have you tried Tandy's montania hides feel in love with it, very soft feel and real easy to work with. Quote
