    Experimenting With Belt Making.

    Looks like you know what you're doing so I'm probably not saying anything new. Two pieces of 3mm leather ends up being stronger than one pice of 6mm. Go figure. Kudos to you for doing the saddle stitching by hand! I've done a bit myself and it is no small feat. A tip of the hat to you for...

    What was the last TV show you watched?

    So glad to know of another Matt Berry fan! I'm not sure many in the states know of him. The wife and I are big fans of everything Matt Berry. I especially love Toast of London! Wish there were more than 3 seasons. What We Do in The Shadows has a great soundtrack. The title song is awesome...

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    ^ Was Alien 3 typical of the 90s style of sci-fi or did the movie invent the style? I tend to lean to assuming the former. ;)

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    No judgement from me. I would list this as one of my guilty pleasures. It's very hokey in parts but I kind of like it!

    Golden Era Passtimes / Hobbies

    I needed a proper sheath for this knitting tool. Gathered up some cord and went to work. The main part of the sheath was done with what is called crowning. It creates the circular pattern you see. The top is a modified Diamond Knot. The cord and tool were both made by Mikko Snellman. A heck...

    Alright... Alright! What's Covid-19 making you binge watch????

    I enjoyed this one a lot. The wife and I watched Devs on Hulu and it was pretty trippy. The writer/director Alex Garland also did Ex Machina.

    Vinyl or horsehide?

    Ah yes. I remember the stigma of "pleather". Once in a while the wife or I might reference pleather garments. It is never a compliment.

    Footwear to go with our jackets

    Does anyone have experience with the sizing from Rancourt & Co.? Do they tend to run true to size? I am eyeballing a pair of their chukkas.

    Here is a keyfob I made years ago from scrap undyed veg tanned leather. No dye or clear finish was used.

    Yes the tanning process creates that natural color we see on JCSD's jacket. I've done some leather-work projects and that un-dyed neutral color is what you receive from suppliers, unless you purchase leather specifically dyed. You can see examples here-...
