We were running out of room in our little 2 bed/2 bath rent home. I was running out of work space in the back room/bar of the house. Lincoln, who is now 3 ½, and has a lot of energy was running out of space. It was time. It was a big decision. A very stressful decision.
I was then ready to kill the dragon, or the mimosa tree in the front yard. Now instead of slaying the dragon, I’m the guy who makes the arms for the dragon slayer.

"I really wanted a custom belt but I didn’t want to pay for it. I figured I was somewhat artistic so I decided I would take a crack at it. I tried watching a few Youtube videos, but I really wanted to find someone to teach me so I could learn the right way. I thought leatherwork could be something I could really get in to."
