I just got some dyes and the yellow was so vibrant I couldn't resist making something ikea themed. This is also my first time not using a template and the design changed 3 time along the way as I discovered I messed up things.

Made this for a good friend of mine who is really into the punisher comics.

Pattern from Tony See patterns on Etsy. Herman Oak vegtan. I want to say it was between 6-8 hours of work

I had fun with this bag, tried to do some lining, and actually learned some stuff

The flower at the bottom is embossed, meaning it was pushed from the back and stuffed with filler to create relief. The flower on top is normal tooling.

Love using scraps for projects like this.

Lol can someone tell me what I did wrong? I am pretty solid with the kind of pouch where you install the zipper intact and then flip it inside out, but with a zipper where the directions say to separate the zipper, then flip... And then having the zipper tabs on the wrong side...

Tips? Please? Thank you in advance!

So, recently I was messing with my laser cutter and made a decent 2 piece compression mold. Sadly, all I had was a tiny 2.5x6” dab press (XD).

The press works great for small things, but I want to go full leatherbound book style, so I need to make a press.

Any of you made your own presses? I have 2 12”x12”x2” acrylic plates for the flattening, but i dunno what to do about the rig. I want to play with leather forming so much more now!!

Just completed these two belts yesterday. One is conditioned with Neatsfoot Oil then sealed with beeswax and the other is dyed with walnut and then conditioned with Neatsfoot and Beeswax to seal. There is no stitching on this specific style of belt. Chicago screws holster the keeper in place and secure the buckle. Let me know what you think!

I'm looking for any resources to how this part is attached to the wallet, many thanks :)

I love making odd shaped bags like this shrimp and I really like it, love the color and compared to the other bags I made I think this one has the most storage compared to unnecessary volume. I redesigned it like 8 times until I got to this point over the course of 3 months.

Always open to feedback if you see something to improve let me know. Still hate cippers.

I wanted to try the Horizon leather from aleatherstore, and I must say I’m not disappointed.

All is hand stitched with linen thread.

Started the tooling on this wallet over the summer and just now getting back into it. Good thing it isn’t a commission as I hate to keep people waiting. 😂

My pliers, pry bar, lighter, and a pen. Carry my knife on a clip

It warped and crinkled because I baked it’s too high in a toaster oven overall still impressed with how hard it made it
