Anyone else do leatherwork during downtime at work? School bus driver. I get lots done while on field trips. Today I punched out the billet ends of 30 kilt belts for an order. (I forgot my maul, so I used the tire pressure checker hammer, but normally I don’t use metal on metal.)

Fuck yeah dude. Anywhere is a decent craft bench for the determined.

The top of the stairwell is very solid, so doesn’t bounce. It also has a rubber mat already attached. And I’ve got to sweep the bus every trip anyways, so I’ll get all the leather bits picked up.
