Leather Work
« on: July 25, 2024, 09:48:17 PM »
I thought I would start a thread for some of my leather work. There won't be much commentary on my part, but if anyone has any questions, feel free to ask. I will add to this thread later.

Love the pouch and compass.  :excellent2:

If it wasn’t for the recent medical bills (I’m laid up with a closed tibial plateau fracture that’s on week #5), I had planned on trying to get a Jedi belt from you soonish. Might have to add that type of pouch into my thinking.

I made a pattern based off a WWII ammo pouch that makes a great Jedi belt pouch. I'm on my phone now, but I'll post a picture when I can get to my computer.

Hey gang! I thought I would stop in and say hi! I'm still alive and well. Still working at Home Depot, and still doing leather work on the side. It has been a while since I have built a lightsaber, but when I get caught up on current projects, I would like to rebuild my old brass and copper saber with the yellow blade.

Here is one of my recent projects. If we are friends on FB, you've seen it, but I thought I would share it here.

The pattern is called The Scottish Purse. I treated the plaid material with waterproofing spray to help repel water and dirt, and I lined the pockets with the same material.
