    corporalclegg asked for a status update on this.  Stitching seems to be holding up great.  It was really easy to burnish the edge.  You can see a little of the original color around the stitching.  It's really hard to lose a lighter with this case on it.  Also people don't 'accidentally' take your lighter.  I bet this thing has saved me ten or twenty bucks by now

                    Nice. I've got a couple dog collars I need to make. This shit is so easy and cheap. You can make gifts for everyone.

                    Camera strap I made a few days ago.

                            Thanks! Really, really appreciate that 🙂 In another world/life/something, I would love to be a craftsman, but as things are, I'll just have to stick with being a happy hobbyist!

                            Seize the day and don't you cry.

                                Hey Guys,
                                  I made few business card cases recently and I wanted to post them.  They hold up to 35 business cards and are held together with 4 rivets.  The 1st was a prototype made from some cool “quilted” leather I have and the last 2 are the “Natehate Silver/Gold Pack”.  I made these for him and his boss, with the idea that he gets the silver and his boss gets the gold!  Anyway, here they are…

                                  The first one took me a couple of weeks, finding out stuff, learning how to sew basically. I made a smaller handbag for my gf, that took me about a weekend. The last one took me about 2x4 hours of work.

                                  I just ordered some 21oz black canvas, planning to do a duffel for my gf and another briefcase for myself, all black everything with black leather and thread too. Stealth bags 🙂

                                  Like the card holders Moonshine! Prefer the veg-tanned ones myself. Nice work!

                                  Seize the day and don't you cry.

                                    I've been busy with leather too!

                                    Here's a dog collar I just finished today. All hand stitched.

                                      That looks like some fine work there Zach, excellent even stitch pattern.

                                      Made in England, clothed in Japan, fed in America and drunk in Belgium !

                                        Great work, Seawolf!  With the stitching and the rivets that thing is bullet-proof!

                                          Here’s a razor case I made recently with plaid interior and horsehide exterior.  Nothing more to add…
