Roger Posted June 2, 2007 Report Posted June 2, 2007 i'm working on something for myself. still don't have a belt for myself but, at least it's for me Quote
Ambassador abn Posted June 2, 2007 Ambassador Report Posted June 2, 2007 Very nice! You gonna dye it black? (Just kidding.) Quote
Moderator Johanna Posted June 2, 2007 Moderator Report Posted June 2, 2007 I like the tri-weave front accent. Good lettering, too. (love the font!) Hope to see it when it's done (and hopefully not black! LOL) Johanna Quote You cannot depend on your eyes when your imagination is out of focus. - Mark Twain
Ambassador freak Posted June 2, 2007 Ambassador Report Posted June 2, 2007 (edited) As fast as my eyes could take the picture in, the words came out my mouth, Dang he's gottin good. Not taking anything away from you other works of art. I've been admiring your work for just over a year now when i first saw it on diff biker forums. I must say man, maybe it's just me but i think your skills have really exiled over the last year. Or maybe it's not your skill but the art work your creating , which is still a skill and maybe the most important one. Now I'm gonna go dig a deep hole out back and through my tools and leather in it. Then go soak myself in gasoline and set in the garage and play with matches.

Roger Posted June 3, 2007 Author Report Posted June 3, 2007 thanks all! i like tri weave. i like to find uses for it when i can. if this was a bigger seat, i would have worked more into it. no black for sure! i think i'm gonna let the sun do it's thing on this one. i got the pan padded and the cover saddle stitched over it this eve. i just need to clean up and burnish the edge and it's done. i'll have a pic up tomorrow night for sure. the font is one i use quite often. cloister black Quote
Guest Posted June 3, 2007 Report Posted June 3, 2007 Hey Beeze, I thought the exact same thing when I opened your post.....Man he is REALLY improving with every seat. Your work has always been good; but man you are way better than good now! Sorry things have been slow for you. Probably has to do with riding season being here....no time to think about a new seat.... It'll pick up no doubt. Dave Theobald Quote
Roger Posted June 4, 2007 Author Report Posted June 4, 2007 thanks dave! much of the improvment in my work is work surface and better tools. i am wqrking on a much stronger table and a 3" thick slab. i also got a barry king swivel knife for christmas and a set of is bevels for my birthday. they took some getting used to but they have made a would of difference. here is the seat completed. we did not have enough sun today so, it didn't darken much i spent a couple hours on the design, 5 hours tooling and around 5 hours stitching Quote
Guest Posted June 4, 2007 Report Posted June 4, 2007 Hey Roger, If you would, could you describe your "sun" finish? After the sun darkens it, what do you apply after that? Antiquing? Oil? Atom Wax? Thanks and show us a pic when its complete Dave Quote
