Members Rolandranch Posted January 17, 2018 Members Report Posted January 17, 2018 Hello, everyone! I made some pen pouches for my brother to sell with his pens. If you would like to see his pens, go to www.woodnotch.com The leather was from Tandy's oil-tanned and embossed remnants. Thanks for looking. -Ryan Quote
bikermutt07 Posted January 17, 2018 Report Posted January 17, 2018 Great job are they machine stitched? 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.

All machine stitched or it wouldn't have been worth the time. It took under 2 hours to do them all so it wasn't bad. Quote

garypl Posted January 17, 2018 Report Posted January 17, 2018 Hey Ryan, those pen holders look good and are a great idea! I bet it took longer to layout and cut the pieces than it did to sew them! Gary Quote Cowboy 4500, Consew 206RB-4

That print stuff was kinda difficult to work with because it was pretty thin and my cb4500 is mainly for thicker leather but it worked out ok. 2 hours ago, garypl said: Hey Ryan, those pen holders look good and are a great idea!

I made a cardboard template for marking the leather so it would go faster but it still took longer. I cut them with shears (imagine the cramps) and I am convinced that if I want to do a lot more of these, I will just get a custom cookie cutter punch (sorry, I don't know what else to call them).

Members Rolandranch Posted January 17, 2018 Author Members Report Posted January 17, 2018 (edited) I need to make a whole lot more. I made them last night and they all sold this morning. @garypl ...So yes, I'm getting that cookie-cutter. Edited January 17, 2018 by Rolandranch Quote
