I could make pretty much anything.

Pretty much anything, but not anything pretty.

I thought one of the reasons for this forum was to show projects and get teh praises or teh criticism.It makes no sense to have this board if anytime someone posts their work they get a truckload of hate..And it seems the ones doing the ripping are the ones that can't pee without someone holding their hand.
I like it Dave..you're an artist with leather.They're jealous of your talent,that's the only reason I can see for flames.I'm jealous also but I won't throw rocks at ya.

I like the design and stuff, though I know it'd look much better if it was cut proper with the exact same lines as a standard pickguard.

Leather is funny to work with. It grows as you tool and shrinks as you finish it. I still have to do a bit or trimming with it and also still have to put the finish Laquer on it. I also may put in the holes for the screws for the pickup. Haven't decided on that one though. The pictures are kinda hard to what it really looks like. The embossing on the roses doesnt really show up.

Thanks for the compliment!

In what way does that relate to your "can't pee without someone holding their hand" comment, Tom?

Why do you think I'm not happy?

I'm plenty happy, I just think Leather Tooled Pickguards are stupid and ugly and that the Telecaster is ruined with that on it.
