John Clay

I work in a semiconductor factory in Arizona as a manufacturing technician. I enjoy doing crafts like making rings from coins, experimenting with 3d software, collecting film and digital cameras, taking photos and editing them in Photoshop, and my favorite current hobby, creating projects from leather.

I recently made a bicycle bag for my bicycle from chrome tanned leather (or it's actually vinyl, not sure, I bought lots of leather in bulk). I designed it in illustrator, and it fit my bike perfectly. First time ever doing something like this, and I'm proud of it.

I really want to quit my night job, and do leathercrafting full time. But that would be a big leap, and I have bills to pay, so we'll see how it goes.
