looks good man, I like to play around with leather...my dad has been doing it for a long time and just started back up about a month ago he is getting pretty good again. I'm gonna get him to make some cut collars for me and some buddies. I'll post up a couple pictures of his recent stuff.

I'm gonna go broke buying all these goodies now  I really like the GPS holder and the gun scabbard. I will get a pic of my wallet you made me put it up here. It is holding up very nicely. Good job on all this stuff man, it looks great. Matt

Clay,
It all looks great. That GPS holder you made for me is primo bro!!! It rides on my hip good, lightweight, and the snap makes for easy one hard useage. Its a big improvement over the nylon carrying case I was using.
Thanks again!

If you’ll treat that leather with some Skidmore's Leather Cream it will last forever. Sun, water, mud nothing seems to effect this stuff not to mention it will make your leather alot more pliable.

Clay, Real nice work... I play with leather from time to time. I noticed that you mentioned all hand sewn. You may want to check around with the local boot repair shops. Ike wrecked our local shop. I know that hand sewing is very time consuming and it takes the fun out of leather work for me anyways. I am back to hand sewing until I take the time to find another shop, or find an affordable machine. Keep up the good work. Later....
