I had a handicap with the tidiness. There is a little pinstripe type tool that carves lines in leather and lines up with the edge. When I built the bags I had carved two of these and I just painted the raised portion in between. You can see an example of those, pre-painting, on the top flap here - http://www.flickr.com/photos/neutralbuoyancy/5186904832/in/set-72157607896493013/ and some on the front back, sides here - http://www.flickr.com/photos/neutralbuoyancy/5186305169/in/set-72157607896493013/ On Mar 24, 10:51 am, SteveF wrote: > Okay, I was expecting something gaudy but your pinstriping is very > tasteful and understated--complements and ties together bikes and bags > quite well.

Are those custom leather panniers, or modified horse panniers? They look crazy cool. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.

Oh for anyone that might be interested that's Angelus Brand acrylic leather paint. The color is just "orange".

The panniers are something of my own design. It started with that smaller bag under the seat and some scrap leather I had and then I couldn't stop myself.

Very nice touch. With your custom made leather panniers and the added color trim, the overall look of the Sam is quite distinctive.
