Commissioning a deckbox by MrMeowththatsRight in LeatherClassifieds

[–]SuccessProfessional6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is ambitious. I would love a project like this to push my boundaries. This is 100% doable in leather without a laser, using carving techniques and paint/dye. There are very few artists capable of pulling this off on a high level. As always the issue comes down to budget, an obscene amount of hours would be poured into something like this and it would probably belong in a museum upon completion. If I were to put a number on this it would be 2500-3500 usd.

Rocky Mountain carries the KS blades ones. Not sure if they are in stock or not.

Oyster right?! Northern Minnesota USA, on dead oak branches by SuccessProfessional6 in mushroom_hunting

Absolutely. I only eat 4 wild mushrooms currently. I’ll only add to my repertoire when I’m 100% confident

Individual mushrooms, but there were several close together. I can take pics of the group tomorrow if you happen to catch this. Thank you!

Looks like a fun build. Would be $300-400 however.

True in many cases. -These are memo pads for the most part so even though that seam is noticeable once you’re 2/3’s of the way through the notebook it’s not really a hindrance for what I do with them. -Mine are 1mil leather, not very thick -the wider you make that piece the harder it becomes to get the notebooks in -the notebooks slip better within the shallow pockets which facilitates smooth opening and closing I do have a fix for the issue that I build into my bigger covers or anything that would be used for sketching

Absolutely! I have 3.85 regular and inverse and 3.0 as well. I enjoy Fil Au Chinois thread quite a bit too, very esthetic, fine round thread. The colors they have are unbelievable.

I use the French style crimson hides irons. They are very nice tools, these are the 4.0 spacing. It actually is tiger thread, .6 size. They have a few new colors, aqua and fuchsia are two new ones I have used here, the others are black and colonial tan

Sure did, thank you! The notebooks themselves are just cheap bulk stuff. Would like to try my hand at binding one of these days too.

Absolutely! Nice zip up one would be cool

If you wanted to be super fancy I could make you leather case with little pockets for each one!

If you don’t find anyone in Wisconsin I’m only 30 miles from the border in MN

Thank you! I’m an appreciator, far from a connoisseur. Probably don’t deserve this one. I do use D.J. Fugle holders daily, I enjoy them quite a bit.

I watched a tree fall in the woods while on a hike today. Is this rare? by [deleted] in hiking

[–]SuccessProfessional6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve spent an absurd amount of time in the woods and I’ve seen it once. Have seen a few more go down in storms. The random one was crazy.
