    Tonight's share is the first paying project completed after my retirement. Also the first paying customer from a Facebook ad. He wanted a custom guitar strap, suede lined and fully tooled with traditional Polynesian tattoo art to match the sleeve tattoo he has on his arm. We decided on Natural leather with a black antique to compliment the black and gray tattoos. This is without question the most tooling I've done to date and I was very pleased with the way it turned out. He was very excited when he got the strap.






    Last but not least I have the customer's permission to use photos of his tattoo for comparison:

    That's a beauty!!! And they LAST. I bought a wide leather guitar strap when I was 17... never used another one ever.

    Electrician's Pouch

    Had a guy contact me through Facebook looking for an electrician's Pouch. He wanted it tooled with sugar skulls and any other art I could fit on it. So....







    Sugar skulls aren't really my thing but it came out pretty well anyway. Color is saddle tan with a dark brown antique.

    P.S. I can't figure out how to edit the picture size, I know they're huge but since they're already posted to imgur and apparently I made them public pics I can't edit them.

    Time for another update. Perfect for the handyman. Holds a pair of 8" slip joint pliers, a 6" adjustable wrench and a Klein 11 in 1 screwdriver.




    All 4 went to the same customer.

    Good work. Must confess I aint a big fan of leather. Color me toting my big boy in my Crotch Possum under the hot weather gym shorts. It dont interfere with any bodily functions and can be brought into play quckly. Not sure how they could get improved on too much.
