my seat
Let me know what you guys think... I took my stock seat and stripped & reshaved it to fit my taller frame. Then I bought some leather. Learned how to carve leather by watching videos online. Bought some basic carving tools. Picked a picture and tweeked it a bit to make it my own and carved it on the leather. Then I used a cheap craft store air brush to stain it. Sealed it. Stitched it. It took my a while to figure out how I wanted to stitch it and I screwed up pretty good on some of the stitching but I think overall it turned out okay.
Its almost 3 in the morning. I'll post pics of it on the bike tomorrow.

Looks good man. I'm not a fan of tan or brown, but looks like you did a good job. My Grandpa use to do leather carving and wow he could do some nice stuff.

Sweet job man! I can appreciate someone who researches and tackles a job they've never done before.

For your first time at attempting it, IMO you did an awesome job! Can you imagine what kind of work you can be doing if you keep it up? Who knows, could maybe even get a few customers off this site.
