So my wife recently bought me some leather work tools for my birthday. I make my own clothes quite a bit so leatherwork seemed like a natural progression.
Anyway, I've been learning the ropes with belt making. It's a really satisfying process and I'd recommend it to anyone.
It feels great to make exactly the thing you want; and the outlay for old hand tools is quite minimal.
I found some cheapish split hide to work with from a supplier in the UK and also some beautiful 3mm veg tan tooling hide.
Would love to know what people think!
