They look cool on Ivan, "The bushcraft family" to the tune of the Adams family :) Kids'll be happy with them. Have to make Alison an extra nice coffee for that.
 
Still really payment but in kind.....? on a regular basis?.. only playing devils advocate...

Had permission from mods so not breaking rules
I'm trading what I have for what I want where is the harm in that

Well I can assure you are seeing it wrong skill trades go on all the time on this forum and I for one partake in this opportunity

Skills trades do go on and that's what makes this form good... but you clearly state in your original post you did these patches as a commission thus bypassing the maker rules.

It's not the only time you've stated you've taken commissions either...

Where is the word commission in my thread nowhere I traded fair n square as I do all the time
 
I will be very careful, as i have used my brownie points this week! But i originally contacted Trev, re making me some patches, and asked how much, he clearly stated to me that he was not allowed to charge me money, re the BCUK, maker rules. (I did want a load more!)

Trev, expained to me that he was cautious about, becoming a maker, for various reasons, he has a baby due anyday, and that he was concerned that it may not be economically viable, with funds being accounted for, but he also said, that if there was enough interest in his leather tattooing, that he would make that jump.

So i swopped some stuff, for the patches, which i believe is allowed.

Ivan...
 
i dont see what the problem is here, i know makers are not allowed to tout for commisssions but theres nothing saying that your not allowed to take them if someone asks you. as ivan approached trev theres no issue apart from maybe this thread being in the wrong section?

I didn't even see it as a commission as I explained to Ivan my status ( ie I'm not maker or maker plus) so cannot except money I then proceeded to ask if he had any camping item to trade so we did so ,I've done nothing wrong
 
These patches and any other tattooed leather as well as engraving or filework I would now like to offer my services officially .thanks to all for your overwhelming support and great comments
