Froghunter Posted February 4, 2008 Report Posted February 4, 2008 OK, here is a clock I made for a friend. He rides with me and also owns his own bakery, so I wanted to have "Biker" stuff and make it Bakery friendly, if not just a bit whimsical........ No snickering allowed!

Damn you ECO... For a friend??? phuuuii..yeah right duh. I bet that heart is "for a friend" too But seriously then, that's some nice stuff and that heart has a very nice touch to it. I bet someone is really happy with those items despite the trouble you had with the ECO stuff. Good work!

The cat seat is a project I'm working on for a friend who wanted me to wrap a gel pad for his wife's xmas gift, wife is Kat. The heart is a wallet that I made for my wife but the color was not what we wanted so I don't think she will use it. Was supposed to be Light Mocha Brown. This has a green tint. The boot strap is something I want to make many of and sell as pairs. I just need to find the right kinda clips. Thanks for the props dude. lol I find that clipart are good pics for leather sometimes. Plus I can manipulate them in Illustrator and print them and scale them easily. Yeah, computer geek...lol Quote From the insane mind of SPIDER... http://spiderflesh.com Myspace: Spiderflesh Facebook: Spiderflesh George
TomSwede Posted February 5, 2008 Report Posted February 5, 2008 (edited) Hey man! Always a pleasure to meet some with a sense of humour, those emoticons are great little helpers. The Kat seat was indeed very nice I'm sure she'll love it. I got the same idea for bootstraps as you have. One testpiece has been laying for over a month now and waiting for the hardware to arrive. Larry Lassos post made me think that if cowboys use why not bikers. The hardware I have ordered is a pair of western spurs but I'll cut off the back thingy and see what I can do with it. Just made the strap right out of my head so we'll see how it will fit. I also thought of a chain going back over the heel and another chain right under the sole (military boot style) witch attaches to a hidden smaller strap over the boot front that is adjustable so one can tighten it, thus preventing the chain to fall off the heel. The tightening strap would then be hidden under the main piece where one can have the wearable art for a nice display (HD logos or whatever). A ring could work as connection point for the chains and strap on both side of the shoe. Talking about good pics for art on leather. I'm currently doing a Motörhead skull on a bracer. All pics i find with it is depicting the skull in cast metal so that's what I have to deal with. I'll try to make it look like a cast metal piece, I have figured out one way to do it to leather but I sure aint sure what final result will be. I'll use silver spirit dye and some antiquing on top. That's all I say for now. Cheers!

Contributing Member rdb Posted February 5, 2008 Author Contributing Member Report Posted February 5, 2008 Clever idea Spider! Finding the right clips will be hard. Suspender clips without teeth is about all I can think of too. Kat seat was neat. The color on that wallet looks like it belongs in an Indiana Jones Movie...The cave of the Golden Wallet...lol Quote Web page Facebook
Members Spider Posted February 5, 2008 Members Report Posted February 5, 2008 Yeah, Thanks for the props guys. I am loving this leather working deal. lol sure is personally rewarding and it is cool if you get some green too in the process. I'm gonna post practice piece in the Show off forum. It's a Megadeth concept pic. Quote From the insane mind of SPIDER... http://spiderflesh.com Myspace: Spiderflesh Facebook: Spiderflesh George
Members Hidemechanic Posted February 5, 2008 Members Report Posted February 5, 2008 TomS and Spiser, you guys talking about staps to hold down your chaps so you don't look like some Rodeo Drive Divas with pedal pushers?? :pirate2: Quote You did What??
Members Spider Posted February 5, 2008 Members Report Posted February 5, 2008 Yeah, pretty much... No, actually I'm making these for my jeans cause they rise and show my pretty stripped sox and then I don't look as cool as I'd like to. I can make these out of scrap pieces I have...if there is ever such a thing. 1x5 with 1" folded over on each end and leaving 3 inches in the middle for a cool pic or initials.
