[knucklehead]

yesterday, today and suday is a three day leatherworking class at the tandy leather factory store in portland oregon
Chan Geer is teaching the sheridian style carving.

this time my flowers look like flowers.

the picture is work in progress. sunday we will learn how to antique color it and then glue everything up and lace it.
the item will be a medium size notebook holder.
today we just sealed it with the neat lac replacement RTF. neat lac is being discontinued due to everyone going to a safer water base dyes and finishes. thank you enviromentlists 

i learned alot in the class. even learned how to do a arrow head design with the basket weave stamp.

Pretty good stuff there! Wish I had a place closer than 3hrs for me to go learn stuff.   Very nice flowers! DM

[knucklehead]

WC,

yep your right, my mistake.


Dalton, you missed a great class.

and the new style that i learned on basket weave i just have to try it on a holster.
so i will be doing another holster for myself this winter with the arrowhead design basketweaving

That's some fine work, pard. That repeat floral pattern is really smooth and flowing. The circular pattern transitions nicely from one to the next, too. The arrowhead is nicely aligned and even. You're doing some first rate work. I can hardly wait to see what you do with your next project. Thanks for the pics.

Howdy Knucklehead,

Beautiful work!  As Ten Wolves said, I can't wait to see your work on a leather project.

Our local Tandy store offers classes like this. After what I have seen from you, I will be sure to attend.

Anytime you can take a class from one of the world class instructors out there, you will come away with
more info the you paid for.
I have been blessed to have been able to take classes from the likes of Bob Beard, Chuck Smith, Peter Main,
Al Gould, Tony Lair & Jeff Mosby.
