Hey Ya'll! I just finished up this wallet for a bagpiper in Texas. I laser engraved his Clan MacLaren crest into the face. Hand dyed veg tan in 4/5 ounce.

That is a great job. I like it a lot.

My maternal grandparents (both deceased) were McLaren, from Broomehill, Western Australia and Glasgow, Scotland before that.

Great design and the bronze conchos and fittings go really well with that leather colour.

Thanks all! The laser is a Glowforge Pro. I came in on the pre-order they did a few years ago. I love it!

AndyL1 do you use the Glowforge just for surface art or do you also use it to cut out patterns. If so how good of a job does it do and what about the burnt edge. What do you do with it. Thanks ken

@AndyL1 This is really nice! Went to your website and checked out your Galway wallet and I noticed that it's lined. I've been thinking about making some biker wallets and using some printed cotton fabrics (bandannas, Hawaiian prints, etc) to line them and I was wondering if I could ask you a couple questions about the process? I was wondering how you do your edges with the fabric sandwiched in between the two pieces of leather, and the second is what adhesive and method you use to stick them to the flesh side?

Again, very nice wallet and the laser is working great! Thanks for taking the time.
