I'm back, like a bad penny...

After another bout with big "C" I've emerged victorious!

Missing a few more pieces, so I'm no longer a complete idiot.

I'm still here making leather stuff

Baldrics, Whydah Boxes, chargers (improved with a few more years experience)belts and such.

Do you have a store front/website?

Not anymore, just custom stuff these days. Contact me and we can work it out.

Most of the stuff I make can be found by scrolling through this thread

Wow, had the best visit today, had a whole bunch of pirates blow-up my phone! You scurvy bunch of bandits made my day!! The last couple of years have been a trial..I've been fighting with the cancer again, 3 surgeries since last July. 2 this year, I think we may be done for a while. Pirates had peg legs and hook hands...I'm going to get a prosthetic to help me speak clearly again. Once again thanks for making my day! Tartan Jack, Fayma, Stynky and the rest of ya from Dauphin Island!

I've been cleaning around the shop, trying to declutter the work space. I've found a few things to liquidate20231010_122345.jpg.1dd72c9f7758b894a9e4ddfb96c3de32.jpg

I have 11 of these 3" buckles, I'll let them go for $2 each + shipping.

Over the years I've improved greatly on my original charger design. I'm able to turn them from a single a piece of wood, no more brass inserts. I also copied a couple of different designs I found looking at different English museum pieces.

I'll still make charger sets to order.20231010_125242.jpg.f1a7e172a75db5c50437aae5badbc123.jpg

The copper soldered ones were actually being made before the wooden ones became prevalent. The Advent of the lathe made the wooden ones far easier and less expensive to produce. When I made the 1st copper ones my soldering skills were questioned as being too sloppy. But, then a photo of some survivors from a British museum showed up my work was very authentic in quality..

I will never think of 'shots' the same way.

Like my "shot" glass? That's my big boy syringe!! 150 ml, the others are only 60ml

I call dibs on the 3" black iron buckle and the hand sewn belt bag! Great stuff!
