Rossr Posted February 3, 2018 Report Posted February 3, 2018 Well apparently two was not enough so I made another one. This one I am going to see about donating for a auction. If any of you know the symbols on the front you can guess what for... Anyway, Veg tan leather, carved and did some simple quilting on it. The middle piece is oil tan this time just to mix it up. I sewed it on the Juki-lu563...still learning but getting better. Inside lined with a waxed pig suede and veg tan for the flaps. Starting to get a real process down on these. May have to consider making some for sale at some point. Constructive criticism always welcome Ross https://www.facebook.com/EinhornLLC/videos/1028263387312029/ Quote
Members YinTx Posted February 3, 2018 Members Report Posted February 3, 2018 Your tooling is looking incredible. really small details in there and came out perfectly. I'd say you could be selling these any time. YinTx Quote YinTx https://www.instagram.com/lanasia_2017/ https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLK6HvLWuZTzjt3MbR0Yhcj_WIQIvchezo

Overall I was pretty happy with this one and knew it would be a challenge the rope part of the bead necklace took some time but looked ok in my opinion. 7 hours ago, Brown64 said: Looks really good!

bikermutt07 Posted February 3, 2018 Report Posted February 3, 2018 Really great job, rossr. What color did you use one the outside veg? It looks perfectly applied. Process? 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.

Process? Hey Mutt, That is Golden Brown Pro Dye by Fiebings. I only use the pro dyes from fieblings at this point. For me its been the easiest to use and gives the most consistent result. I just wiped it on circular pattern with a hunk of sheep wool. Finished with Tan kote same think wiped on in circular fashion Kind word btw Thank you 46 minutes ago, kiwican said: That is some sweet work man! Thank you sir Quote
