    Re: So you shared your face with us, but what makes you YOU?

    On to the less emotionally-laden leatherworking.

    I don’t do tooling, Dracos does that. We’ve made over a thousand belt pouches in 22 years, and pretty sure we’re near or over a thousand belts, too - but most of those are the kind where you cut a strip and rivet a ring on one end, so you can produce a lot very quickly.

    I think most of the belt pouches have been hard, molded ones, stiffened with paraffin wax, with a back/flap piece laced on, lacing around the flap edge. Let’s see if I’ve got a picture . . . root root root . . . here we go:


    That one is one of the fancier ones I’ve made, the two-tone lacing is slower than solid-color, as you do a stitch of one color, drop it, then do a stitch of the other, drop it, repeat. Single-color I’ve done so
