Ahh you are too kind... thanks it can only get better right? Practice practice practice.
I'm thinking this will keep me busy in retirement and its fun! I'm enjoying learning and playing with it.
Tooling the fancy designs? Yeah thats another story sheesh I ain't no artist thats for sure.

That looks like fun. Maybe I'll try doing some leatherwork if I ever get caught up on all the other irons I have in the fire. I need to finish my 65 mustang and my 1930 Chrysler hot rod. And I need to sell my 57 Pontiac 2 dr. and my 1937 Pontiac 5 window coupe. I guess I won't try leatherwork after all.

Yup I tried a couple little tooling projects and yeah... even with a traced pattern its an art.... I probably won't be good for much but maybe a border. I was a chicken shit to even try a border on my holster cuz one wrong hit on a stamp and its game over and that would piss me off!
So like a chicken shit would do I took the safe route and am not going to do any tooling on it. LOL!
