Looking to get a wallet made

Was about to pull the trigger on an Ashland 100% shell cordovan wallet for my birthday but found this community. Thinking something like Johnny the Fox. 100% shell cordovan, 6 card slots, 2 hidden. But instead of it being 3.5 inches tall would 3 or 3.25 inches be possible? My current wallet is 2.75 but its just a money clip with a shell. Color: black on outside raw inside, gold stitching unless other options sound better. I'm not sure what other options are available. Made in the USA. Is this possible?

Vertical bifold, heavy discount

Hey everyone. I’m selling this vertical bifold made out of Olmo and Oliva Pueblo. I’m not sure what was happening when I did the stitching, must’ve been an off day but it’s a bit wonky. Because of that, I’m hoping to sell it for $100CAD plus shipping instead of the $175 that I would normally charge for this type of wallet. It’s functional and I’ll still absolutely warranty it if anything happens, it’s just not my best stitching. If you have any questions please don’t hesitate to ask. Thanks for looking!

Nippy or Kamege Skiving machine?

Hi all I have been planning to buy a Leather Skiving Machine or Bell Skiver and finally I reached the spot where I can't Afford FAV and Fortuna but my budget is around 2500$ max. I have done more than serious research and came to know that these 3 following are the market leaders in precision(Important in my requirement) FAV, Fortuna and Nippy. I am leaning towards the Nippy S1 model initially but I am not sure if Kamege SM50C is worth considering it?

I feel the more electronic dependent attracts more maintenance in ware and tear. Nippy comes with head only and needs to attach servo motor whereas Kamege comes with 2 motors one for Knife spinning and other for Feed wheel spinning. There is one more model of Kamege SM50A(3500+$) that it claims to be coming with a Germany made feeding motor. I don't think I needed to pay 1000$ more for a German feeding motor.

Any one used Kamege SM50C? Any suggestions please that you think helps me. Or do you want to suggest any other brand? Any person with hands-on experience with Nipple S1? Please enlighten me thank you.

remake of a discontinued bag ✨

a handful of years ago baggu worked in real leather and made this large crescent. i’ve been after one forever but they are few and far between. i realized that i don’t even care what the brand is but i absolutely love this style and would prefer to end the hunt and just have it commissioned.

i will provide the nylon strap for you to use but i’m wanting something as close in appearance to the bag linked, using those dimensions listed. i actually have one of their nylon versions i could send in to have traced to help make the pattern as well if it helps!

wanting a softer, pebbled leather (or opened to suggestions) with an inner lining that includes a couple of slip pockets and a zipper pocket. (again i can send in a bag for you to see what the interior is modeled after as well)

would love to find the right fit for the commission and see some work of anyone interested in working with me :) thank you !!!
