DaddioDigs Report post Posted August 6, 2019 The bug has bit me. 30 years too late. Thank you YouTube for the discovery of my new-found passion. And for putting a sizable dent in my checking account. I have so many questions, so many ideas and a scrap heap of bad carving. But it's great fun and I've already learned so many things from my mistakes. Been a guitar player since I was a kid and the part of leathercraft that intrigues me the most is, like an instrument, the ability to develop ones own style. Look forward to being part of this community and developing my skill to the point of being able to help others. Dave Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sperrier Report post Posted August 14, 2019 I am with you. I got interest in leatherworking at 45. So it is never to late as long as it makes you happy. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chrisash Report post Posted August 14, 2019 Shucks I only started at 70, also 3D printing and learning Fusion 360 at the same time, must do something to keep those few grey cells that still exist alive Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
