Members JimBilt Posted June 9, 2017 Members Report Posted June 9, 2017 I just joined a couple of weeks ago, but have been visiting the forum for years. Great forum! Here's a wallet I just finished. It will be my personal wallet and replace the old one, which was completely worn out. Quote
bikermutt07 Posted June 9, 2017 Report Posted June 9, 2017 That is nice. You showing off a lot of techniques. Great job. 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.
Members Sofaspud Posted June 9, 2017 Members Report Posted June 9, 2017 I really like that. The look is clean and simple, but shows a great mastery of technique. Nice work. Quote

alpha2 Posted June 9, 2017 Report Posted June 9, 2017 Outstanding! What is it with people...like me, that continue to use a wallet until it falls apart? I just replaced mine a few weeks ago. When I actually took a good look at it, I was amazed at how worn it was. I wouldn't be surprised if I'd had that one for 15 years or more. I made one for my brother also, and he said the same thing. Quote So much leather...so little time.
Members JimBilt Posted June 9, 2017 Author Members Report Posted June 9, 2017 Thanks for the favorable comments. Alpha2 : I made my old wallet 11 years ago and the corners of the credit cards were sticking out and starting to wear, so I thought this would be a good time to make a new one! I kept it that long, because after awhile the wallet conforms to the shape of your butt. It's comfortable, does the job and you don't even know it's there. When I get a chance, I'll post some of my other stuff. Quote
Members Halitech Posted June 9, 2017 Members Report Posted June 9, 2017 looks good and I really like the double stitching around the edges. What's the inside look like? Quote Every day you learn something is a good day. If you don't learn something every day, was it worth waking up for?
