Hi karesz
Nice to see you again. I was really worried about you. I was bordering to PM you !!


Yes, Cabobimmer really seems a nice, polite and excited guy, I agree.
But the rules are the rules.
As you know I'm always willling to help all people and I don't like this position. But I should not allow backdoor sales.
Let's see the opinion of other Staff members

Hi, I am really really sorry if I broke any rule, I already EDIT my post where say that I will sell something in the future. It was never my intention to get Back door sales or anything like that.

Sorry

The straps section is for finished straps.. taking custom orders is only for Trusted Dealers, otherwise is a big No,NO..

cabobimmer keep working, experimenting & learning..

Thanks to all for your support and I understand that rules are rules, and I accept it. Sorry!!!! :)

So if I ever want to do something will be in the sales section right? So far I have made all of them for my self I love them and its a great hobby.

Hello Ale,

Thanks mate, I was away a lot and had family affairs/issues...
Anyway, I'm trying to get back to the rep scene, but time is not on my side nowadays.

I'm starting to understand people with lots of SPARE money, its much easier to walk in a boutique and buy something, whereas doing all your research and homework to buy a decent rep takes some time :D :D

Rude straps for rude boyz! Congrats, the baseball is very nice.

Thanks! It's actually made from my fathers baseball glove and it's a very famous Mexican brand called PALOMARES it's like Rawling. This strap looks better in real life and came out very very soft

man i love people who make and fix things .... not a lost art, but a forgotten one at times - well done to all who are willing to fail a few times in order to do something worthwhile

.... in that vein and apologies for going OFF TOPIC for a moment ... here is the first (and only) door handle I made .... couldn't find one that would suit and fit the doors I made, so got some scrap copper and brass and an old piece of railway line and a hammer .... this is the result - took a couple of days to get it as good as I wanted, but I am happy that it worked out .... the finger plates were a snap after the handle.

Here's to the makers of things!

Unless the OP says:

These are for sale
Let me know if you'd like me to make one for you
PM me for requests
Is there anything you'd like me to make for you................

Let it alone. He's showing what he can do. Lots of members do the same thing from lume to watch mods without being hassled. Relax. If this is something you're going to continue with, you've got a lot of catching up to do on soooooooooo many other threads.

Is all this about "Seriph" door handle pictures? I know it's off topic but not selling anything. If its about my pictures I am not selling, just showing what I have done for my watch. I think today I woke up with the wrong foot. LOL

wow - I thought the joke about backdoor sales was awesome .... wish I'd said it

:D

FOr the record: I made that for MY house - and the entire entrance - several weeks after our region was devastated by the worst natural disaster in the nation's history. I wasn't sleeping and couldn't work so when I wasn't volunteering at the recovery centre, I went out to my shed and made that ... it helped 'reset' my mind and heart.

The only thing I was "selling" was to celebrate that the OP and I shared a willingness to try our hands at something instead of just buying something .... my intent had no more agenda than that - perhaps it is only pertinent for those who also do such things.

I don't sell door handles, watches straps pens or anything else on the forums ...

Sincere apologies for any misunderstanding

Cabobimmer - any chance of seeing in more detail, the junction between the denim and the leather? it looks like one just morphs into the other but I am sure that's a trick of the pic - is there a leather backing all the way that you have perhaps shved down to accommodate the denim?
