I was pondering at some point what the minimum set of tools was that I'd need to ship out in a remote workshop set. I do think it's still quite a few bits but I might get it to fit in a shipping box at some point :)

This was very much a trust-the-process project, but I'm very happy with how it turned out ๐
Now we actually need to give some leather craft workshops.
Ohh, very interesting!
Glad to see we've got the kinky statisticians on Bluesky
Been a while since i made these little hanky code belt loops.
Forgot how pleasing a little jobbie they are.
If you get two random Tarot cards with each order, statistically, how many orders does it take to collect a full set of 22?
I want to start giving leather craft workshops so I've figured out how to replace all the steps that require hammering with various pliers. Now I can host them at your local pub ๐
Obviously, first, I need a toolbag
Thank you! I'm excited by the idea, but for now it's just going to be some careful trial sessions XD
Could definitely start doing them on the mockingbird side as well, for collars or so
Hello Hive Mind!
I'm looking into giving workshops in leathercraft (notebooks, wallets, ...) , either for corporate socials or casually, and unsurprisingly can't really use my current brand/name for that ๐
Any ideas? Winning idea can have a custom journal or notebook cover.
When the customer orders their sleepsack with 18 belts.
Pray for me...
They're not exactly rolling off the shelves, mostly because I haven't really been advertising them, but every now and then I randomly sell a Tarot deck, and that's pretty nice!
Another day, another copyright infringement report submitted ๐
But also, another suspension harness made. (I lie, it took me two weeks XD )
New idea for the open mouth hood with micro perforated eyes.
When wearing it with the muzzle from the head harness, the blindfold buckles are dangling about.
Instead, there should be just enough space between the laces eyelets for belt loops to thread a strap with buckles through.
Gotta wear some extra leather to psych myself up for making endless straps ๐
61 days is a fantastic streak! Great work! ๐
Lemon juice with baking powder for a light abrasive polish
Top tip: lemon juice is a gentle enough acid to get rid of rust or verdigris without damaging leather.
Keep your old pieces alive!
An intro to DARKROOM Zine
An A0 or A-1 notebook XD
How many notebook covers can I make from this?
Look how insanely big half a cow is.
Almost touching the floor off the edge of the bed
Mostly a tool roll with a top and bottom with zips around the edges.
But quite large, because it's intended to hold several sets of each tool
If anyone wants to get into crafting, but worry they don't have creative skills (like me), I just want to share the sad scribbles that hopefully eventually become a beautiful toolkit bag.
Any time my love
Ikea flat pack suspension harness. Just add some shiny bits and padding bits.
Now to bevel and burnish 16 metres worth of straps ๐
This photo is lacking leather!
Get yourself some leather trackies XD
Muzzle ready to go!
With with new super soft leather lining and extra D-rings to lock onto a custom body harness
Make yourself comfortable. You're going to be here for a while.

This one has micro-perforation on the eyes, so it lets light through there XD
I think without the micro-perforation, you'd still get a tiny bit of light through though.
You'd need padding on the eyes to block it out completely
The shop called this 'gloving leather'. Super soft, and inside a muzzle, it's like your Dom's gloved hand over your mouth for as long as the padlocks stay on
SELLING
I've bought these too small and need to go up in size.
Mr B Indicator jeans in red, custom size 27, pants end above the ankle to fit inside boots comfortably, ankle zips.

If anyone has a size 28/29, I'm buying.
