Homemade Wallet

<< < (3/3)

Cameroo:
Well, I can't speak from experience because I just made this and have never used stingray before, but I have read that it is very durable.  Aside from the bumps on it, it looks just like leather, so I would imagine it would wear like leather.  Maybe someone else has used it before?

M-P:
Hi Folks,  I have a commercially made wallet that is made from stingray.  I used it ~ 5 years and finally retired it because the insides were falling apart.  The stingray skin is nearly new looking though.    Ron

Saw those skins down at Tandy and had the same though...of course I can't do it now because it's already been done.  Harumph!

Nice work.

skyarrow:
i like the white on black  did you do that or did it come that way

Cameroo:
That's how they come.  There's a bunch of different types of print on them too at Tandy Leatherworks (leopard print, zebra, etc.) if you're into that sorta thing :)

The black ones looked the nicest to me.
