Members Dragonfly42 Posted August 25, 2017 Members Report Posted August 25, 2017 Hello all! I would like to start by saying thank you for all of the wisdom I've found on this site. I recently decided to pick up leatherwork (two weeks ago) and wanted to post a picture of my first attempt at carving and tooling. You have no idea how much this site has helped! Quote
Members cowboycolonel Posted August 25, 2017 Members Report Posted August 25, 2017 Fly, All you have to do here is to know what questions to ask. So many well-informed folks and all willing to help. What part of Ohio? Quote

Any critiques or input would definitely be appreciated. I'm just outside of cleveland Quote
Members RemingtonSteel Posted August 25, 2017 Members Report Posted August 25, 2017 Dragonfly, Can't critique, as I don't have enough experience myself yet. But what I do know is that carving leather and carving leather well are two different things. For your first attempt, looks like you are on the road to carving leather well! Great first attempt... Can't wait to see the finished project. Quote
CowboyBob Posted August 25, 2017 Report Posted August 25, 2017 Another one from the Buckeye,Welcome aboard here & it looks like your doing a great job carving already!! Quote
Members RhodesAveDesigns Posted August 25, 2017 Members Report Posted August 25, 2017 Hi, from another Midwestern noobie! I know nothing about carving, except what I like, but it looks like you are doing very well, already. The amount of knowledge and information on this site truly is amazing, and goes far in continuing the art of leathercraft. - Elizabeth Quote
