Neat idea Taninaree with the house key.

I'm wanting to try that myself, but first I'm going to try it with a LM micra that I'm waiting to arrive.

My first try. Leather scales made from an old belt. I just realized I have no glue left, so fixing them to my Classic will have to wait till tomorrow.

Wow Altered. Excellent leatherwork. This is obviously not your first try.

And welcome to the forum.

Welcome to the forum mate, and impressive work

Gareth · **Reply #1211 on:** June 01, 2010, 07:25:56 PM

Looks like a great job altered. Love to see them then they are finished.

porteiro · **Reply #1212 on:** June 01, 2010, 07:29:34 PM

That is more than just a little bit awesome.

Neil · **Reply #1213 on:** June 02, 2010, 12:30:57 PM

Looking good

pics when finished please.

nuphoria · **Reply #1214 on:** June 02, 2010, 10:29:10 PM

Nice

How did you shape the scales?

altered.ego · **Reply #1215 on:** June 03, 2010, 05:54:33 AM

Thanks for your kind words and a warm welcome, guys. It's a pleasure to be here.

It still needs some minor corrections - logo is a tad slanted and the cross on the leather logo needs a proper shaping. Unfortunately, I didn't have a file small enough to fit the hole, so I had to use my MiniChamp's emergency blade and some sanding paper. Most of the work was done with MiniChamp, Soldier, Huntsman and sanding paper, except for the rivet holes and T&T grooves, I used a rotary tool for that.

Pics were made with a phone camera, so the quality is a bit on the low side. Will try to make some DSLR shots outdoors today if the weather gets better. $:-\$

i like that! the shield on the lanyard adds a nice touch too

nuphoria · **Reply #1217 on:** June 03, 2010, 12:46:22 PM

That's turned out really great dude, great to have you here too

Looking forward to seeing more of your work

altered.ego · **Reply #1218 on:** June 03, 2010, 04:28:26 PM

that looks great

Mr. Whippy · **Reply #1221 on:** June 03, 2010, 04:54:31 PM

That is fantastic. It should be part of the regular Vic lineup. I bet it has a great tactile sense.

Taninaree · **Reply #1222 on:** June 03, 2010, 05:14:13 PM

Great job

Neil · **Reply #1223 on:** June 03, 2010, 05:51:44 PM

Nice finishing touch with the the fob

Those are sweet!

altered.ego · **Reply #1225 on:** June 21, 2010, 08:55:56 PM

Here's another one. My old Huntsman has new wooden scales.

Neil · **Reply #1226 on:** June 21, 2010, 09:25:40 PM

Love the little fobs you're adding

The rest is nice too

Gareth · **Reply #1227 on:** June 21, 2010, 09:29:22 PM

They're excellent mate.

AHB · **Reply #1228 on:** June 21, 2010, 09:39:57 PM

Beautiful work you did on that..

Neil · **Reply #1229 on:** June 21, 2010, 09:52:24 PM

Here's an old one I just found whilst sorting SAKs out for sale. Its not very exciting but as I was taking pictures anyway

I called it The Inspecting Golfer

When I'm asked to make a mod for someone else I always use new or mint parts (unless vintage bits are required) but when building for myself to play with "good used" will suffice and if you look at the back, the liners give this away.

Why did I make it? Well it was part of my ongoing experimentation to find the ideal IT SAK. This isn't it but its a pretty good tool combination, even if I say so myself
