Handmade leather pipe pouch, the early years

And for visual effect, I offer you my third pouch as well as a shot of all three together -

I was upset about the streaked dye job at that point. It's worse than wood even, in the sense that once it was messed up with streaks or spots I couldn't fix it. Maybe there's a way, but I just kept making it worse.

At least that's what I thought at the time. It's growing on my, and I can definitely replicate it haha.

Very nice work! I think the dye jobs look fine. Hand made means it has character. I like things that you can tell are hand made. A flaw here and there is just the way it goes, and I see no issues with any of your work. Keep it up!

I'm with Brent. Those things keep one from being just another one.

Thanks guys, I appreciate it. I know what you're saying and I agree...at least when it's someone else's work :pipe:

Every time I look at these I like them more and more, you're making me really want to get or make a cover for the moleskin notebook I use at work. I've got a vision for it, it's the extra large, I'm thinking slots for the front and back cover, a pen loop, a business card pocket and some form of closure. I didn't consider I might be compelled to try a new hobby when I just started into cigars! Damn bums are bad influences all around! :stogie:

WoW! What a project and a great job at it, that's for sure. I'm impressed!

Now.....if I can just keep my mind from wanting to try my hand at leather crafting...to add to my 654 other hobbies.

I want in line to buy one of those whenever you say the word! I've been wanting a leather pouch for my baccy and pipe for quiet some time, but everything looks too cheap or is not me "style" (I'm country) yet has a crazy price tag (being that I don't like what's available to begin with). But, this...is perfect!

Good job Tim!
