Hi all,
Here's a look at my first leather project in about 10 years, thought I'd share. I'm calling this a prototype due to it being pretty rough around the edges. :)

That's pretty cool. I've never seen anything like it. I like the inlay work. Welcome back to the leather world.

Thanks, I'm planning on sticking around this time. I going to try to focus on lower volume complex projects.

That is a cool concept.

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.

I like the concept! A nice design, and good styling details. It must have been frustrating coming back after 10 years, thinking to yourself, " Self, I used to know how to do this!"

So, do you participate in the dragon boat races in Thornton?, or the north Denver area? I think it's Thornton, hard to tell down there. Anything south of Loveland is Denver to me!

So much leather...so little time.

Haha. I HATE that they call Colorado Springs "Southern Colorado " or even worse SoCo. The north side of the Springs is MM 149, I-25 is 300 miles north to south. Id call it CENTRAL Colorado. Lol.

Very Cool!  Awesome design to it too

Love the concept, only comment I would say is that the stitching should follow the curve at the corners rather than be a straight line
