Big fan of all that basket-weave beauty. From the look of it, you wont ever need a replacement!

Thanks, I love it too…my daily constants.

I still am impressed by how well he nailed the basic concept I gave him for the set. To do so in such a creative manner, on such heavy built, beautifully crafted pieces is truly a talent!

Thanks guys, for the comments, and thanks jdl for the pics. I love seeing these evo shots

I know I've been pretty quiet lately around here. I got addicted to a video game, was busy with leather projects, and dealing with some family issues. The usual

Here's some recent stuff…..

Great stuff as always Zach! The pics are my pleasure, for certain.

I opened an easy shop. It's a work in progress, but here it is.

Hey, I know that belt! Hope the shop grows business for you. Do you have anything special you're working on?

[seawolf]

I have some ideas, but I haven't sat down and hashed them out on the workbench yet. I'm doing a Ranger belt for my father-in-law that'll be a new challenge. It's going to be beautiful if it comes out the way I'm imagining it. Who am I kidding?! We both know I'm not going to stop until it comes out the way I'm imagining it

[seawolf]

I may have jumped the gun a little on my Etsy shop. It's in a much better place now…

A new belt commission. It's tooled veg-tanned on top and a Horween Teak Essex lining, saddle-stitched together with brown poly cord.

[seawolf]

Ohh, I almost forgot this one. This is a Bifold wallet in Natural Horween Chromexcel FQHH.

Thanks gents. I really appreciate your feedback! I've also taken some time today (finally) to update my website. www.zeebeeleather.com It was in desperate need of a facelift, and I feel like it's in a good place now. I'd appreciate any feedback you guys might have. I'm trying to grow my business, and want to do it right.

Nice work seawolf!

@seawolf:

Normaly I'm more into plain belts, but that is some serious belt-porn. Beautyful.

[seawolf]

Thanks @Cole I think this belt could really span easily from a casual to a more formal setting. This is a commission for my father-in-law, and that's what he wants it for. As he said, "I want to be able to wear it with a pair of nice jeans, or dress it up with khakis."

And yeah, I'm normally into more plain belts too, but I'm seriously considering making one of these for myself when I get the time!!

@4c:

Nice work seawolf!

Thanks brother!

The site is looking great. If I have any critique, it's that you don't speak at all as to the quality of materials used or where you source from. These are areas where your attention to detail shines as much as anywhere, and it's a nice selling point. Otherwise the quality photos, back story, and offerings on display are great examples of what you do.

The "father in law" looks awesome dude. Has a snakeskin like appearance but with leather. Good job

The Etsy shop looks good, and of course your work is on point, as always. Something that I've learned from being pretty active on etsy at one time, is that it definitely helps expand your reach and exposure to have as many listings as possible, with as many different tags describing them as possible. There's a ton of blogs you can read on the subject, but essentially it boils down to as etsy has grown exponentially, there are so many listings on the site, it's very hard to get discovered through simple searches like "leather belt". That search would produce thousands upon thousands of items for someone to sort through. If you diversify your tags and match them to the names of your listings, you will also generate more search hits. It's also better to have as many listings as you can take the time to create, so that your shop seems established, and there's even greater chance of being found.

I'm rambling a bit. Good luck on that site, though–it's gotten very big. The upcoming public offering of their stock should be interesting.
