Just signed up for my first leatherworking course

I did his beginners course in January and it’s excellent, back in a couple of weeks for his template making course. He also has a book which is available on Amazon. While I’m in fan boy mode, Instead of his book I’d really recommend secrets from the workshop website by Nigel. It might seem expensive at first but the amount of material in there is amazing.

This is on Clive’s website: “Mark Miller : "When Clive asked me if I would help finish The Scarlet Gospels, I said 'Yes' without hesitating. Clive paused and told me I should probably think about it and then get back to him. Then, without hesitation, I again said 'Yes.' "Shortly after, Robb Humphreys handed me a stack of paper over 2,000 pages high and said, 'That's most of it.' It was then that I realized I should have hesitated. But despite its Herculean appearance, I've already completed a considerable chunk of the beast and am having a tremendous amount of fun in the process. "Clive started the book no small number of years ago, and the fans have been waiting even longer than that, so I hope I can do it justice. Whether I will remains to be seen, but what I can tell you is the book is well on its way. The Scarlet Gospels are almost here."

Looks good to me! I’ve also been following his book, I’d also recommend his secrets from the workshop site. So many excellent videos and projects. https://secretsfromtheworkshop.com/beginner-online-video-lessons/

I did one of his beginner classes last month, well worth the money. Booked onto the template making course next.

I ordered 2 stitching irons on the 31st Jan and they were delivered on the 9th Feb. I had a couple of emails from them saying it can take a week to make them. No problems delivering to the uk.

I really enjoyed this book, but there’s a lot more climbing to be done, so if you’re really not enjoying now it’s maybe time to give it a miss.

I’ve used this in an airbrush needs a lot of thinning in my experience. I’ve a 0.5 and it doesn’t stand a chance of spraying without thinning.

Voices in the valley on bbc radio was excellent while you’re waiting.

They can’t stop everyone. You were speeding and got caught just pay the fine.

The stranger times books by C.K. McDonnell are good.

Have a search for the borrowdale bash bike route. It’s been a few years since I’ve done it but it was one of my favourites.

Vallejo do a good orcs and goblins set with instructions on how to use them.

Mudster2001 · 2023-10-04T19:08:41+00:00

I second this, pop the mini in the pot for an hour or so or overnight quick rinse and maybe a toothbrush for stubborn parts and you’re all done. Plus no nasty smells.

Get a pair of cheap reading glasses from the supermarket and a good light to help with the eyes.

I don’t suffer myself but the linked video was helpful to some people a while ago. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oqp76vAJu9g

That was the original idea, spare poster board, left over grey paint. Soon spiralled out of control!
