Hey Artie, I've been a big fan for a few years now. Started watching your videos and now I'm into making my own leather goods and I'm loving it. I see you like our bourbon. I'm a processor at Buffalo Trace Distillery and I work in Blantons Hall. I process Blantons on a daily basis along with all of our other single barrel bourbons. It kinda runs in the family as well. My daughter works at Woodford Reserve and my son in law works at Barton 1792 Distillery. Glad you are a fan of our bourbons! Cheers

Hi, greetings and happy new year from Yorkshire England. I was fortunate enough to get some leather craft tools and stuff for this Christmas. Your site is totally inspiring because there's so much to learn. Love this card holder. It's different, with the rivets and not stitching. I'm looking forward to having a go at replicating it. Initially it will be the hard way, as some of the bigger tools are not part of the plan or budget yet, but the idea is wonderful, and manageable too. Keep up the great work. I'm inspired.
