Members Rolandranch Posted July 20, 2018 Members Report Posted July 20, 2018 Hello all! My dad asked me to make him a pair of chaps. The deal was that he'd buy the materials and I'd do the work. Sorry, but that was a special deal for dad only. This took me about 40 hours to do. All of the pattern/design is my own work. Let me know what you think! I will post some pics of my dad wearing them soon. Thanks for looking! -Ryan Quote

alpha2 Posted July 20, 2018 Report Posted July 20, 2018 I did not know that chaps had pockets! Add that to the long list of things that I didn't know about chaps. Beautiful work, as usual. Don't you just LOVE dyeing background? Jeff Quote So much leather...so little time.

Well the modern cowboy has to put his cell phone somewhere ya know. I use chaps almost every day and I have to say that I wish I made mine with pockets. I mean, I still can but I'm too lazy to make nice stuff for myself. Something tells me you've dyed background before... If I shut down my brain, listen to music, and just pretend that I LOVE dyeing the background I can get the job done. Oh, btw, I finished that gun belt for the holster I made a little while ago. Working on the pics now. Soon to be posted. Thanks! -Ryan Quote
