Camera skills could do with some work but nice one for making something from scratch !

i had this old brown leather chair,i was taking to the dump,so i striped the leather off to make a set of saddle bags like the cowboys,they are not big 8x8x4 inches deep,but big enough for a day out to take camera,waterproof,snacks and stuff,you could make them bigger for touring,imade them reversed (finnished side in) and waxed them with my home made leather treatment, im so cleaver, i'll finnish the other bag toningt while watching telly,will post a pic when im done,to see if they are the new big thing,lol

What a great idea..... but now I'm in trouble, I got caught trying to rip our leather sofa to bits

it would be great if every one was into it

Too right! It's a family thing with us, everyone makes stuff. I think it's getting more popular again.

dont want to bore people more than i have,but because you make stuff have a look at my file knife i made for camping,splitting logs and stuff

the copper rivets are made from overhead power cable,the blade was an old file i got for a£1 ,and oak scales,the hole for the land yard is a bit of central heating copper
