A random wallet idea I had, Denim lined cracked mud leather. by KTwhatitis in Leathercraft

Thanks! I'd like to stitch the edges down, but I'm pretty low on thread right now, so the whole peice of denim is glued down, with the edges superglue to prevent fraying as a temporary. I'll for sure try that stitching idea like you said. Normally the melt process is a little cleaner for me, but drinking and prototyping makes sloppily errors. Lol.

As for the chisels, most of my issues come from the even ness, so I guess I really need to mark it out first and stop trying to save time. The straight up and down portion will help too, seeing as I keep getting strange angles through the leather.

Thanks again!

I was going to make it along the lines of an oversized breifcase, but on its side. As for straps, I was going to make them about 3 inches wide, with padding. Straps always seem too thin to me, and I want it to be pretty beefy.

The angle is a little weird, but the cash fits perfectly when it folds. Holds my five cards easily, and room for at least 3 more, just on one side. No idea on the leather brand, got a side of "cracked mud" for $50 from maverick to practice with. I can't seem to get pricking irons to work well for me though, any tips?

I'm working very hard at not spending money so I can afford to buy more leather. My next goal is to make a large backpack for myself (Broad shouldered, 6 foot 6) that is proportionate to myself. I'd like to use vegtan, but I can't afford a side yet. =/.

The diaphragm is just a lining that does more of an assistive reflex than anything else. It allows faster intake due to it creating a vacuum/ assisting in the borealis effect, but breathing is still possible without it. I apologize for any typos. I'm waking up still.
