simple double grain side keychain

[Wedgetail]

Another quick keychain I banged out yesterday evening for a work colleague.

Normally I wouldn't put the split ring on the spring clip, because I'm paranoid about losing things and that seems way too easy.... but what client wants, client gets!

It is made from Tandy's Austin Double Shoulders, in tan. Skived to half thickness and finished just with Aussie leather conditioner.

Edges are dyed dark brown for contrast, and then burnished.

The red thread is from lekoza. It's called Slam thread, and it is GREAT stuff to work with.

I hope you like it guys, sometimes the simple projects can be rewarding.

Good job, and keep at it.
