Members LCoomer Posted December 21, 2016 Members Report Posted December 21, 2016 (edited) Hey Y'all, I've already asked a couple questions (which were answered promptly by some incredibly helpful people), and posted a little of my work, but I'm finally getting around to my intro post. I'm out in Baker City, OR, and I've been tooling leather off and on for about 8 or 9 years. I started it as a 4-H project and was lucky enough to have a phenomenal instructor who spent her life making saddles and anything else you can use leather for. I'm currently in college at Oregon State University, which has gotten in the way of leather working, but I'm managing to get back into it. Funny how you can make time when people start offering cash. I've made just about anything up to rifle scabbards, but most of my work is holsters. I love making practical items that I know will last for years. That being said, I've got a ways to go yet. Looking forward to learning from y'all, and I hope I can return the favor some day. Take care, Luke Edited December 21, 2016 by LCoomer Quote
Members LCoomer Posted December 21, 2016 Author Members Report Posted December 21, 2016 (edited) Here are a couple of the holsters I've made. The brown one is my personal holster, and the colorful one I made for a friend. Edited December 21, 2016 by LCoomer Quote
bikermutt07 Posted December 21, 2016 Report Posted December 21, 2016 That is some fine looking stuff. 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.
