Carry
Wallets, card sleeves, notebook covers, and the small pieces that become part of an everyday rhythm.
Sinker’s Workshop Leather Works
Made to
earn its
marks.
Hand-cut, stitched, and finished pieces built for daily use. This is the working record behind them—the design, the material, the process, and what the next one will teach.
The standard
Good leather gets better by being used.
The goal is not to keep a piece flawless. It is to choose honest material, make every cut and stitch count, and build something that develops character instead of wearing out.
The bench
Three kinds of work.
Projects will be organized by how they are used, with enough detail to make the next version better.
Field
Sheaths, cases, straps, and durable shop or outdoor gear made to protect the tools worth carrying.
Workshop
Patterns, leather choices, hardware, stitching methods, finishes, mistakes, and improvements worth recording.
Project archive
First pieces coming to the bench.
Project 001
The first documented build
Photos, dimensions, leather, hardware, thread, tools, process notes, and the finished result will live here.
Coming nextPattern library
Build it again—better
Reusable patterns and revision notes will turn one-off projects into a useful workshop archive.
In developmentA maker’s record
Leather. Thread. Edge. Hardware. Time.
Each project entry will record the choices that matter: hide and weight, thread and stitch spacing, edge treatment, hardware, pattern version, hours at the bench, and what I would change.
