Thanks guys!

Yeah, I was trying to capture that 1969 "Old Skool" look. The antiquing actually turned out better than I had planned. I planned on antiquing the whole seat, then reapplying black dye over everything except the lettering. Then I took the pictures to send my customer and the picture really brings out that REAL OLD look! My customer emailed me back saying "That's it! That's the colors!!"....., so I started braiding...

I'll have this one done this week but I have 3 other jobs on my bench that need some attention too ...

more as it develops...

Well, how did I miss this? Very nice looking. A very classic look to it.

I like it a lot, you should be proud of it.
