Members krains Posted February 4, 2008 Members Report Posted February 4, 2008 (edited) This is a picture of my first leather project, a wall hanging type thing for my dad. I have taken a class since then, so im interested to see how I do on the next one. Tips? - Kevin Edited February 4, 2008 by krains Quote I'm what Willis was talkin 'bout! --------------------------------------------------- - Kevin
Members Rawhide Posted February 4, 2008 Members Report Posted February 4, 2008 Not bad Kevin. Keep it up and pretty soon you'll be the next Peter Main. :angel_not: Quote Marlon

Members indypbear Posted February 4, 2008 Members Report Posted February 4, 2008 Kevin, Don't mind Marlon, he just finished a class with Peter in Fort Worth and hasn't gotten over it yet. He'll settle down soon. That's a good first piece. You've got the idea about subtle techniques now just perfect them and the beveling with practice. Practice with the decorative cuts every chance you get on a piece of cased scrap and strop that swivel knife every time you pick it up. It'll come with time. Happy toolin' & keep up the good work.

Indy Ha ha! John, you don't know how right you are!!! I was teasing Kevin, because he was in the class with me. Kevin, I'm sure Peter's class helped you out a ton. I know it did for me. I now see things in my carvings that I hadn't seen before. Marlon Quote Marlon
