Members skinhacker Posted January 26, 2018 Members Report Posted January 26, 2018 (edited) Just joined as I have more time on my hands and will be taking on a few more projects. Started leatherwork in 1972 as a child. Friends dad was pretty slick at making purses and belts and this was a high time for native American and western stuff. Well after a few years all my stuff was packed in a box I had made for my 8th grade woodshop class and girls and cars then career took over. well about 5 years ago I wanted to show my son a few things and spend some time teaching him what I knew (which is crude crafting of utility items). Hope to share and learn as we all stand on those who came before us. Edited January 26, 2018 by skinhacker spelling Quote

bikermutt07 Posted January 26, 2018 Report Posted January 26, 2018 Welcome aboard. There is an answer to every question here. Seems someone always shows up that has hit the same wall. 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.
