Crafts / Craftsmen / craftswomen (craftspeople, I suppose)

Not sure why the style I had made for me isn’t more popular. It’s essentially a slightly enlarged change purse with a divider.

that looks like something i very much need and would pay for

i'm looking for the most minimal way to carry 6 cards in an easily accessible way. was kind of thinking something that folds open like a book with each internal 'page' holding three cards in kind of a cascade.

You can do a burn test on a sample to see if it has chlorine in it. But yeah, doesn't stop people doing it anyway. I've been told it doesn't take much to cause damage.

These any good?

Otherwise I can do the one above but with slots on both sides and the money bit in the middle.

yeah something like that but it literally just needs to hold 6 cards, nothing else, no money. I would hope to make it as thin as possible so it doesn't have lots of pockets

Yeah that's possible - send me a pm

Finally sanded and oil finished.

That's lovely, brass band between the two woods?

(waiting for humourous pic interpretation)

I assembled the big fucker twice this week. Off a 60t crane on Saturday and here in the Printworks, Surrey Quays this week.
We built it about 8yrs ago and it’s still going strong.

That’s fantastic! Good work

Awesome.

A couple of gifts ready to go: plum bob in brass and stainless steel; headphone stand in cherry and aluminium. Edge of the stainless tip is bloody sharp, kept forgetting and cutting myself when I unscrewed it. But it does blend nicely into the brass when it’s installed so guess it’s worth the hazard..

^ and ^^^^: very nice, both.

Plumb bob is excellent

Thanks :)

These are great, are you selling them?

Love the branding

The mice? Yes, I can make you up one. They all vary a bit. PM me if you like

Very nice.

Looks like I was on Santa’s nice list this year. Asked for a bahco or other cheapy combi square and just opened this.
So grateful.

^ that is rather nice!

not in the same league but I got some waxed threads which I am happy with

Finally had a chance to start learning leather craft, it’s not easy but it is fun!

I love the rainbow thread!

I also made some other bits for practice but they are not for sharing... 😬
