Members Jetdoctorbox Posted March 5, 2018 Members Report Posted March 5, 2018 My wife benefits from my love of leathercraft once again. Every time I get a new pattern, by her request, she gets the first one off the assembly line. She gets a lot of use out of this veg tanned long wallet I made just over a month ago. I recently started applying leather dyes with an airbrush as I did with this wallet. This has become my favorite way to apply dyes and coatings because of the good looking results. Quote
Rockoboy Posted March 5, 2018 Report Posted March 5, 2018 I like it. Very neat, nice and smooth. I can see why she likes to use your offerings.

garypl Posted March 5, 2018 Report Posted March 5, 2018 Nice looking wallet - where did you get the pattern? I have also switched to applying dyes and finishes with an airbrush - less waste and good results! Gary Quote Cowboy 4500, Consew 206RB-4
Members Jetdoctorbox Posted March 6, 2018 Author Members Report Posted March 6, 2018 I got the acrylic pattern from a company called MakeSupply in Philadelphia. The web site is: www.makesupply-leather.com. They have an array of really nice pattern of which I own several. Here is a pic of the front of the wallet. It comes in 2 different styles. Quote
Members Mattsbagger Posted March 6, 2018 Members Report Posted March 6, 2018 I have that pattern in digital download. Where the bill slots are square on the end I made them round. It's cleaner to cut and burnish. Also the digital is free. I have other acrylics of his too. Quote

Rounding off those bill slots is a good idea. I'll have to do that next time around. Quote
