I have precisely one leather project on my resume: a very poorly tooled Aztec-ish lizard on a coaster.  I'm lurking these parts because I simply hope to learn enough to make a few useful things; perhaps a nice belt and probably a journal cover.  Maybe a nice satchel/messenger bag if I'm feeling ambitious.

The level of artistry on these pages is, quite simply, staggering.  If I can feel as though I've added value around here simply by mentioning my silly little coffee cup hot plate, well...  that's a huge personal win for me!

Glad to help.

We all begin somewhere, and small steps can lead to big projects.

I started by making small plain pieces, then some western carving, then traditional leatheroods, and saddled...

Or maybe carve Bill the Cat... on a coaster :-)

H you need to move your stuff into the house that way the coffee will stay a little warmer longer. Try and sell that to the misses. Yesterday here it was -30 C (-22 F) and today it's going to go up to +4 (39 F). That's a 34 C temperature change in about 24 hours. Winter parka or rain coat tomorrow?

OMG you guys out East are have a crazy cold snap...

Yesterday -50 boots, insulated jeans, insulated work coveralls, turtle neck, hoodie, winter arctic parker. Tonight / tomorrow sweat shirt and rain jacket. I want, I need, I hope and pray for climate change +22C (72F) all year.

Excellent idea!  How would anyone know if I'd done a poor job?
