2023.05.27 04:20 xdhailey Went back and finished my first tooling project today āŗļø
![]() | Definitely prefer cutting my own leather rather then using Tandyās kits. Also, the holes were janky which made saddle stitching neatly near impossible. Although there are some things I would change, this was a fun project. submitted by xdhailey to Leathercraft [link] [comments] |

2023.05.21 13:33 Low-Instruction-8132 Luggage Tag
![]() | I made this as a gift for my niece for her baby shower. The tag is for her go bag when she's ready to deliver. I used a Tandy craft aid and doubled it up to create a pocket for the baby's info card from the nursery. I'm no artist. I found the stork image on line and printed it. Then I transfered the outlive to the leather with a stylus. I basically just winged the cuts and tooling. I wanted the stork to look like it was flying at early sunrise. submitted by Low-Instruction-8132 to Leathercraft [link] [comments] |

![]() | I can already hear my better half when she gets home. Another hobbie..... submitted by Beerzy421 to Leathercraft [link] [comments] I picked up some supplies from my local Tandys Leather. Just downloaded a 16" messenger bag pattern. Is it best to print the pattern to regular paper then transfetrace the paper pattern to a card stock material? |

2023.05.10 20:50 --waybackthen-- Bernie Wojcicki Leather Tools
![]() | Hello, I'm unsure if this is the right place for this and will look at posting in the leather craft area too but I'm interested in finding and purchasing the below pictured tools that the late master whipmaker Bernie Wojcicki was selling out of Tasmania before he passed away. The black adonized beveleresizer along with black lace cutter was made by Bernie's engineer and avid fisherman friend Dan. submitted by --waybackthen-- to whips [link] [comments] The silver lace cutter was a copy of Dan's lace cutter made by Mark Johnson of Johnson Leather Works in Iowa, USA. This was after Dan stopped making them as he was already retired when making these tools for Bernie. Mark fell out of touch with Bernie and not even Bernie knew what has happened to him. Also, I already own the Tandy Aussie strander and Bevan Rossack's version of the resizebeveler Bernie later used so I'm only interested in the items I'm mentioning. I know more than 20 of these tools were sold by Bernie before he passed and if anyone has some they're willing to sell in good shape, I'd be extremely interested. Thanks so much. |
2023.05.09 21:31 Gwrath281 Frog jelly Brazilian sides review
![]() | Pros: Good amount of leather for the price (3-4 oz on sale for 95 dollar plus shipping cost) Smells pretty nice but I could see if this is overwhelming for others. It is noticeable. Smooth flesh side Takes dye pretty well submitted by Gwrath281 to Leathercraft [link] [comments] Cons: If you want a clean leather for a project with leather then out of the 28 sq foot I got 9-10 sq ft that isn't useful (14 ish if you dont want vein marks). It is useful if you plan to dye it with darker or rich colors. The imperfections are spread throughout so if you want big project materials then this isn't your best bet. 8 cuts total ranging throughout. 5 of which are together ( better than if they were spread out). Smallest is .5 inches biggest is 6.5. Very veining at one side about 7 square feet. Hope this helps other people out. I didn't see much review of this leather from frogjelly so I decided to do it myself. Honestly would just use this for practice and maybe some small goods for gifts. I wouldn't recommend using this leather for your leather goods products. I probably probably recommend sienna flat veg from tandy for 70 dollars with 6-8 less sq ft over this (go to store if possible to chose the best one... I got one online & it's was still better than this one. Only had maybe 2-4 sq ft unusable leather). |

![]() | Finished this hat recently, leather hub patterns ...pattern. the stitching is crazy to get more of the witch look, so it is on purpose lol, same with the frayed unhemmed cloths. Top areas is somewhere between 2-5 oz leather cause it came from tandy, brim is 7-9 oz. submitted by Chaosmeep to Leathercraft [link] [comments] |

![]() | This is my latest piece, a black leather purse I made for my friend. She wanted something that could go with any outfit and had some of her style. submitted by BVLundquist to somethingimade [link] [comments] The closure is from Tandy leather and is called a pin & eyelet clasp.

2023.04.23 23:32 ShiftyFitzy I got a side of this as a gift, so I donāt know what it is exactly. Just that it came from Tandy. It is NOT the Faraon leather. Roughly 1.5-ish mm. I cannot ask the man who game it to me - he wouldnāt know anyway. Any ideas? Thanks.
