Wife was in the hospital last week with knee replacement surgery. While sitting in the waiting room I did an eyeglass strap to practice braiding (passing the time) I've done several for use at work. Wound up having to do about 3 sets for some of the nurses, but that was okay, I got free coffee. Photo1. The next is a couple of the belt keyholders in the Tandy Skiver mailout. Did one as a coin holder. My phone case. and the last is a 'work in progress' a table using wood I bartered for. I did some leatherwork for him and he traded me some lumber.

Gonna post the questions in 'How do I do that'.

Come on folks, there's a lot of members here. Post some of your work. I'd like to see what other folks are doing too.

Keep on Smilin

I like the table for sure Jim.. what type of braiding did you do on the eyeglass holders? because if it is 4 or 6 thong round, I honestly need some help on that one...

Thanks folks

Yeah, I wish I could braid that small to Mathew. I just used a 2mm round leather , put a loop in the end and covered with a 5X4 turkshead knot. It'll slide so you can tighten to the eyeglass/sunglass.
