bikermutt07 Posted January 20, 2019 Report Posted January 20, 2019 Nice, I found a bunch of interesting stuff from them. Thanks. 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.
Members R SFraser Sr Posted January 20, 2019 Members Report Posted January 20, 2019 I just bought one, and now the listing is showing only one left. (though I'm sure that the seller can make more) Quote
bikermutt07 Posted January 21, 2019 Report Posted January 21, 2019 I went ahead and snagged the last one. Quote I'm not paying 80 bucks for a belt!!! It's a strip of leather.

Members chrisash Posted January 23, 2019 Author Members Report Posted January 23, 2019 Just received my copy and it looks at first glance very interesting Had a quick look at "Leather Work A Practical Manual For Learners - I. Pitman (1926" shows sample tooling from 1400-1600 using basic tools and floral designs before AS Quote Mi omputer is ot ood at speeling , it's not me

Members arashikage Posted June 17, 2019 Members Report Posted June 17, 2019 Has anyone actually received theirs yet and looked through it? Were there books that were actually useful or just a bunch of really old material that is hard to put to use? Quote

I bought this as more of a reference and haven't thumbed through it much since it arrived. At the price it is a no brainier to add to your reference materials. I would purchase it again if I hadn't already. 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....
