This is awsome! I've only recently joined TBH and I'm hooked. Got a new IPad so my new addiction is very portable. I've been playing with leather craft as a hobby for the last 11 or so years. I stumbled across this thread yesterday, it was refrenced in another thread I was reading. I'm charging my camera right now so I can attempt to post a few pics of some of my work.

Here are a few of my makings:
The first two are knives that I've made with their sheaths. I didn't make the blades, The one on the left was canabalized from a knife i didn't like the handle on the other a blade blank.
Third pic is a few more knife sheaths.
Fourth is a western style holster for my 1911
Fifth is a hoslter and mag pouch for my Mark III
Sixth is a shoulder slung holser for my S&W 686. It was as with most of my projects a solution for a problem. When your in and out of a vehicle a gun that size in a belt holster gets in the way. Sling this over head and shoulder and the pistol is out of the way yet readily at hand.
Seventh is a couple of rifle slings. The one with the hair is one I did some time ago. It's deer hair from a piece of a hide I tanned off a buck. The buck had a white spot on his back and I tried to highlight that with this sling. It also has interchangable shell holders one for my 30-06 and one for my 22-250, they snap on and off.
Eighth is a Bar mat, coasters, and coaster holder. Not sure if Bar mat is what you call it but it sits on the bar I made to catch spills. The spill also give it caracter.
Ninth is a three legged stool. In it's first life it was a cheapo from Academy with nylon seat. Once the nylon started to tear I replaced it with leather. This was probably one of my earliest tooling attempts. Been using it as my dove hunting seat for around five years now.
