      Haven’t posted anything in a while but this is pertinent due to the gear whores in here so here goes!  I wanted to make myself a sheath for my SMF due to it being such a pocketful and the fact that the clip has so much retention and the Gunner grips do just what they are intended to do – they chew on my jeans!  This is my 1st attempt at wet molding a knife sheath, and it’s obviously modeled (ripped off) of Lifter’s fabulous work.  I have a new appreciation of his craft after doing this!  It’s constructed of walnut dyed veg tan leather with olive stitching and is designed to wear horizontally so my fat gut won’t get poked!  Thanks for checking it out!

            Finished this sheath last night for a friend’s kid.  The kid’s grandfather found this POS “mini Bowie” while he was cleaning up and asked his son to give it to his grandson as a gift and my friend thought it would be nice to include a sheath with it, so here it is!  I doubt that the kid will care if the knife isn’t top shelf, but hopefully he’ll appreciate the gift from his GF and the sheath will just be icing on the cake!

              Made this insulin pump sheath for a friend.  Nothing fantastic but it should last much longer than the dedicated pump covers and/or cell phone sheaths he has been using.  Casing leather is tougher than one would think – even though this a simple design I had a rough time with one of the lower corners, but hopefully I’ll learn as I go and my future projects will work out easier!

                Inspired by the Papa Nui attitude, I bought some heavy canvas to make my own beach-tote bag 🙂

                    Looks like it turned out really good! What did you use for the strap?

                            I'd man-up the strap a little or add something like this:

                            The bag is so large that you will be able to fit a mass of stuff in it, so I think you need to distribute the weight a bit…

                              I also have to re-attach strap. The shop where I purchased the stuff, is specialized in heavy camping and boating stuff, the staff smiled because I just wanted to make a little bag haha
                              Will search online for not so heavy stuff, padded straps and stuff like that for the next projects

                                Made it a bit slimmer. Papa likes the bag, he thought it was content of my latest package from Eastmen haha

                                      Custom drawn skate deck…. Probably took me about eight hours to do. Pretty pleased with it considering that I've not drawn anything for ages, but had such s crap day yesterday that needed to do something.
