A Good day's end

stitch · 03-11-2009, 01:52 AM

I usually work from about 9am to around midnight to 2am ...
Around 5pm or so each day I break for dinner and some R&R
Today, after finishing up two western shoulder rigs, and two cigar cases
My "Break time" looked like this...

Then by close up time I had finished this one ....

A Good days work today

I just had a Guinness today. Boy what a beer! What was the smoke? I couldn't quite tell. Never mind I saw it was a CAO Brizilla. That last holster looks great.

stitch · 03-11-2009, 02:25 AM

The cigar is a little CAO Brazillia 4x38 ...Good little smoke.
Went great with the beer

Working at 2:52 AM? Spending some late nights, my friend.

Beautiful craftsmanship... looking forward to my cigar case getting here!

BamBam · 03-11-2009, 11:05 AM

what a beautiful holster and cigar case.

Are you going to market those cigar cases?

It looks like it would definitely stand the test of time.

DPD6030 · 03-11-2009, 11:58 AM

Sounds like a good day. Cigars, leather and beer. Good combination.

cle_smoker · 03-11-2009, 12:16 PM

Those are the kinds of breaks we should all strive for. Great looking work.

Stitch, that’s some awesome tooling! I played around with leather years ago, mostly belts, key holders and wallets so I have a real appreciation for the amount of time and effort involved.
