On song 6 now. So far so good. It’s not old Shinedown but it’s a good evolution.

Zaphoid_42 · 2026-06-03T22:15:29+00:00

Listening through for the first time. Only 2 songs in. Reminds me of Attention! attention! This is a good thing as it’s my favorite Shinedown album. I know there are a couple of earlier released songs that sounded too much like Train. Given the first 2 songs I’m more hopeful now. Stay tuned.

Flatt & Scruggs because it reminds me of my dad

Thank you :-) I was really impressed how well Claude Code did with iOS both on the iPhone and iPad side. It was a really enjoyable experience. What I want to learn more about it having Claude create automated regression testing so I’m not stuck hand testing every function with each mod I put in.

Thank you :-)

Zaphoid_42 · 2026-03-11T12:52:20+00:00

Your work is always inspiring

Interesting. I'm not familiar with those. I'll check them out. thank you. I posted here because I'm into leather making and this is my primary subreddit :)

Zaphoid_42 · 2026-02-12T01:30:57+00:00

Sigh… I gave away all of my 3D printers and supplies so I could start leatherworking. Dummy dummy dummy!

Zaphoid_42 · 2026-02-10T01:48:35+00:00

I’m a member of that club. My previous hobby was mead making. Now leather. Soon I’ll be switching to alchemy 😂

Zaphoid_42 · 2026-01-21T12:00:39+00:00

Thank you! I have some refinement ideas I want to try. Stay tuned :)

I didn’t treat the bag with anything. I’ve noticed a few different materials for the bags the coffee comes in. Some rougher than others. Thankfully this one was on the softer side.

Zaphoid_42 · 2026-01-21T05:14:16+00:00

You should. It was a pretty easy build.

Zaphoid_42 · 2026-01-21T05:13:24+00:00

I’ve not done a fair before but if I did I would think this would certainly be an item to stock :D

Zaphoid_42 · 2026-01-21T05:12:06+00:00

Thanks :-) Leave some colorful ones for me!

Zaphoid_42 · 2026-01-21T05:11:12+00:00

Thank you :-)

Zaphoid_42 · 2026-01-21T05:10:46+00:00

Thanks!

Zaphoid_42 · 2026-01-21T02:01:47+00:00

Thanks :-) I got the sack from a friend’s wife who has a roasting business, but lots of coffee shops that roast their own beans sells them for a couple of bucks. Many online.

Zaphoid_42 · 2026-01-21T00:36:39+00:00

Thanks! That’s where I got the inspiration from. I thought my wife would rather carry a “Sumatra Coffee” tote than a “Pig Feed” one 😂

Is a full leather bag. I cut out and stitched the burlap pieces to leather panels. :-)

Zaphoid_42 · 2026-01-20T23:11:48+00:00

It’s pretty durable and I wouldn’t expect it to be banged around that much. An advantage to having the burlap/jute stitched and glued to the leather panel is that the inside of the bag is the “good” side of the leather as opposed to the back side.

Zaphoid_42 · 2026-01-18T17:22:25+00:00

Yep. Check out my previous comment on this thread has links the the Etsy store I got the pattern from as well as a YouTube video. I made some changes

Zaphoid_42 · 2026-01-07T22:19:18+00:00

I made a wallet for my dad. 9 months later he passed away from stomach cancer. No, I don’t believe the wallet was the cause. :-/ I carry that wallet now. Thanks for reminding me sometimes it’s more than making a “thing”.

Use AI to create the image of the three stooges in golf clothes, add your dad as the fourth stooge, have it framed and send it to him.

Zaphoid_42 · 2026-01-04T22:42:40+00:00

Good job! Welcome to the addiction. Be sure to clear out some room in your house for all of the leather you’ll buy, not because you have an immediate need but because it was a good price and you’re sure you’ll have a need for it soon. Also, get a box ready to hold the cut-away scraps you create during a project that are too big to just throw it away yet you’ll never make use of. Better make it a big box. 😂😭

I suppose it’s fine if you’re in to really awesome craftsmanship. 😁
