As always, Crash, your craftsmanship is amazing and just keeps getting better! Keep up the good work!!
Very nice!
Nice work! I want to try the stamps to pattern...do you just wet the leather and press the design into it?
They look great Crash!
Keep in mind the problem may be extremely complicated, though the "Fix" is often simple...

Best make that a small wooden or rawhide hammer. Rule out the claw hammer & sledge unless you have a gentle touch
Don't pick a fight with an old man. If he's too old
to fight... he'll just kill you.
And I dont (have a gentle touch)..but I do have a nice dead blow hammer so all I need to do now is add the stamp set to me tandy order. Then I can start wrecking stuff until I can figure out how to line the pattern up so it looks half as nice as the stuff crash can turn out....I hope!Best make that a small wooden or rawhide hammer.

Crash,
Nice stuff. Would you share your sources for the leather and especially the hardware?
