It's all good, no apology needed. I'm somewhat used to it since I don't have my gender listed in my profile, and most people expect a tool and machine junkie to be male. And welcome, btw Quote

Members Sledzep01 Posted January 3, 2018 Members Report Posted January 3, 2018 OK remember I am the definition of a beginner. I do not even have a stitching clam. I use 2 clamps with 2 pieces of wood. These pics show my work area, Supply mess on the bed, an overall pic of the 10x12? space and some shelves with miscellaneous leather and gun stuff Although I do have a great view to my back yard facing north east. great when I catch the Deer or the Fox Quote Remember, Whether you think you can, or think you can't. You're Right! Tell me and I forget. Show me and I remember. Involve me and I understand. It is in the religion of ignorance that tyranny begins

My start was just the kitchen table (in the kitchen). 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.

terryHHI Posted January 3, 2018 Report Posted January 3, 2018 Started on my office desk. Didn't take long to realize pounding on desk with computer or a card table wasn't going to work. Moved to garage and things just expanded to fill the space. Love seeing the shop photos. I see a few things I'll need to try. Quote

I see a few things I'll need to try. This is a good looking shop. I wish I had the space for a large cut table. My side cutting takes place on a 1x12 on the floor. And I still don't have enough room to lay it flat. 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....

Although, I'm working on something that I might be able to post on this thread very soon, wheelin' an' dealin' with the wife. Quote -Jake North Country Leather and Wool
