Hello - a voice from the past

[Toadflax]

Hi folks

Some of you here may remember me, but I've not posted on here for well over 10 years. I used to be fairly active and attended a number of moots at Merthyr Mawr. It was through BushcraftUK that I got into leatherwork and, after moving to the Scottish Isles, I've been running a handmade leatherworks business for the past 10 years. I'm now closing down the business and, having cleared it with Tony, I'm going to be selling off much of my stock of leather and some of my tools, so if you are starting out in leatherwork, or already working with leather, keep an eye out in the classifieds section, as I'll be posting items for sale in due course.

Here are just a few examples of what I've done over the years.

Oak bark tanned bridle leather belts



Italian leather and Harris Tweed bags



Beeswax dipped leather tankards



Knife sheathes



Napoleonic cross belts for re-enactment




It's been a great way to spend the last 10 years.

Hello Geoff, glad to see you back on here.

Those are some lovely looking examples of your work, thanks for sharing them

 

[Broch]

Great work there. Closing the business doesn't mean you're stopping leatherwork does it?

 

[Toddy]

Hello and it is lovely to hear from you.

I hope you're closing down for good reasons, but your work is beautiful

Hello mate. I remember you. Good to see you back posting again...

Hope its not just to offload unwanted stuff...I came back recently myself. Not tried to sell a single thing. Hope to see your posts for some time to come.

I remember you.

Welcome back, allthough because of rather sad circumstances. Your work is outstanding by the looks of it.
