    Cheers Dughlas, I'll give those a try. I also like the Fiebings oil based as well as their alcohol dyes.

    I like it very much. Seems very well balanced to my eye. I echo the comment about the two tone design being fancy but not overly so. Yet one more inspiration to add to my growing list. Keep up the great work.

    Beautiful work.

    I haven't done any leather craft since Jr High school and that was - well more years than I can count using fingers and toes. You did peak my curiosity and I looked up Tandy Leather. The tools that used to cost a couple dollars are now around ten. Your work is sure an inspiration to find some of my old craft tools and try it myself. Guess the next cow going to the slaughter house will come back as both hamburg and hide.

    for what it's worthI Echo that you give it a try. I have no leather tools and didn't even know how to choose good leather (thank you, Tandy man). The sporran I made, my first, gets approving comments and nods. I heartily recommend you try it. Worst that can happen is you don't wear it, but still gain much from the experience.
