Members TheMutt Posted February 26, 2017 Members Report Posted February 26, 2017 Hi, I finally got myself into gear and started doing something that interested me a long time ago, And now that I have I am loving it, I'm not good at it (yet) and I certainly doubt i'll get to the level of some but my main aim is to enjoy what I do. I purchased a bag of offcuts and then decided to get the tools etc and have dabbled a little on the 3 projects so far, not the cleanest (altho the passport holder i wanted to make look well traveled and warn round the edges) I am slowly getting the hang of things and making my mistakes and learning. I'm still learning and well I always will be learning something (if you aren't learning you're doing life wrong) I have included my tumbler which has a few more pictures, I plan to chronicle my journey by the projects I complete, more for me than anything but allows me to show off my progress in 1 place.https://leathercraft-by-mutt.tumblr.com/ Thanks for having me here and i look forward to asking many questions in the future Quote
alpha2 Posted February 26, 2017 Report Posted February 26, 2017 Welcome aboard! Looking good so far. I learn at least 3 things everytime I do a new project. Often a LOT more than 3 things. Quote So much leather...so little time.
bikermutt07 Posted February 26, 2017 Report Posted February 26, 2017 We needed another Mutt around here. Welcome aboard. Looks like you are off to a great start and more than anything, having fun. 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.

A very steep learning curve but I think with the minds on here I am sure overcoming most things will be made easier 7 hours ago, bikermutt07 said: We needed another Mutt around here. Welcome aboard.

Members Grey Drakkon Posted February 27, 2017 Members Report Posted February 27, 2017 Welcome to leatherworker! Diving in is a good way of finding out how far you can push things, refinement comes with repetition. Great start! Quote "Everyone with telekinesis, raise my hand!" -Repairman Jack
