Hi folks I'm JimT from northern Alabama. I'm recently retired again, 5th time. I've been around awhile 73 years old, had many jobs but only one a little close to leathercraft was upholstering furniture in mid years, so leather work is new for me started around April this year. On the ladder to being a craftsman I'd say my rung now would be the OK stage. Being a silent member of this site for the last 6 months has helped enormously, I hope to improve with time, will post a couple photos soon. Just now finishing the Turenne bag now. Many thanks to Phil for the knowledge and direction provided in this site.
