Beautiful pieces. I love seeing the art that you create on your leather. It's phenomenal

Simple yet effective. I'll be making one of these myself

I tried carving a face once and gave up halfway through. I just can't seem to get my head around heads. This has inspired me to give it another go so who knows. Great tutorial

I haven't knitted since I was wee. There is definitely a bit of skill gone into making that. Well done

I like that a lot

They'll get a lifetime of use out of those. Fantastic

That would be rather awesome, my friend. Can't think of anyone I'd rather learn from. You are a master at your craft

Thank you. I really enjoyed making it. I almost forgot how much fun leatherwork is. Now to save up so I can fund this newly refreshed hobby

Hi lads and lassies. I offer, for your perusal, my first attempt at a sporran type leather pouch. I'm quite chuffed with it as a first try. I haven't made anything in such a long time

I use plain white vinegar. I put half a cup to a cup in the dispenser drawer of the washing having. It has the added benefit of cleaning the machine too. For extra fluffy towels I sometimes do a second wash where I put half a cup of bicarbonate of soda in the drum. This neutralises any remaining...

Hi lads and lassies I was recently given a Karrimor Global 35-50 rucksack. It's in really good condition. Only issue was that the detachable daysack is missing. Does anyone know where I might find one of these, or something else that would fit into the existing zip? Thanks

That was a great video. Really must do that with the weans this year

No images here, but loads of information. Great read, from a great guy. Thanks bud

Don't forget not to use softener when cleaning your towels, as it decreases their absorbancy. I use vinegar instead of detergent to wash my towels, and they feel fantastic and soak up loads

Great job there. You'll get many miles out of that
