What kind of Christmas DIY projects do you do? (if you do)

[Cutlasshound]

Customised this toy for my mates little brothers birthday…. Was going to sling some chrysanthemums in there but thought it was nice to keep it plain...

@biker226:

I just tend to do it alone to be honest. Purely because only one of my mates has any interest in giving this sort of shit a go (and we are always both busy with work) and also i have a very stressful job and i find that drawing is a good release (although i rarely get the chance to do it.

Let me know what youre thinking of doing and if there are any reference materials etc that i can point you in the direction of, i would be happy to help.

Got this watch band from a talented & generous forum member a few years back & was reminded of it:

Nice strap and super nice Tuna!

[madmonday]

thanks

the strap is thick as hell & so it suits the tuna pretty well.  I've had the straps for a few years but never had a heavy enough watch to suit it.

@madmonday super nice combo! Nice to see one of my straps getting proper use. Haven't done any leatherworking in a loooong time..

Which makes me want to stroll down memory lane to the first post in this thread..
@Jii:

Here's a wallet I made earlier this year that gets a lot of use:

Here's the same wallet today Used almost daily for over 4 years. Jeans arent that crisp either at this point but still in rotation

[madmonday]

that's a damn shame you haven't done any leather work in a while.  you are really good @ it, but I understand those bikes aren't going to ride themselves

[Jii]

Damn straight they aren't

[JCMx800]

My belt hook is too small for my samurai belt, so I tried some other options:
1. Well, that's ridiculous

2. DIY para cord loop

Option 2 is okay for the moment, but I think it's time to order some leather, a clasp and some thread to start my first leatherwork project.
