Where it all started...

Found some old pics and wanted to share with you all the evolution of my work lol!

 

Started making straps about 5 years ago, started with basic tools bought at Tandy and some leather scraps.

 

Learned everything i know now by watching videos, reading, reading reading and reading some more everything i could find on internet

 

Anyway, here's some pics for some laugh :P

 

These are really in my first of the first!

 

Started with this.... thing lol

Tried to do something a bit more complicated in term of stitching... :facepalm::pointlaugh:

and random stuff with ALOT of flaws!

 

Holes too big, crooked stitching, leather cracking due to wrong dye, shitty linning, rough edges, you name it!

There is a certain rustic charm to some of the early stuff but it does seem that the reading has paid off.
