The solution: blow a hole in the side and cover it up with a sliding barn door. This allows for easier access with an adjacent car, eliminates  door dings, and creates the opportunity to set up a work space in the shed.

A huge thanks goes out to kwah-li friends Bryan Jacob and John Barton for help on the project. Here is a final night shot after finally adding the 1×2′s to the door.

an iPad and leather journal satchel.

fine leather craft and hand stitched pages. durable exterior, great for those of us who are most creative when surrounded by the chaotic nature of life. coffee spills, aluminum dust, weld flack, makes this book look even better with age.

whats your opinions on the finish?

do you like the edges?

this is 100% american made, which you can’t really acquire these days, which increases the value.

i can get any design laser cut into the buckle itself, any ideas?

also, i’m working with a glass blower for possible pendants inset in the steel.  and i’ve been experimenting with sandblasting the glass for a phyical relief.

soon will be a belt buckle coming with the sandblasted glass inset in the steel, or brass, or stainless.

inquire within.

first time i’ve picked up my watercolors in years. truth be told, i ran it through the photoshop stock color auto-correct. not too bad, although technically not true to pure. in any event, i thought i’d share.
