    Very well thought out and put together.

    Aaron hit every key point perfectly. Aaron's delivery reminded me of preparing to give a class during my time in the Army. Great class very informative. The class took mystery out of how to design the wallet and why it was designed that way. Aaron also showed how to dye and finish the gator crust. I have been looking for that answer and could not find anyone to show the technique on it. Aaron also took the time to talk to me about gator hides and how to determine what size to purchase for my project a few years ago at the Pendleton leather show. And the gator hide booth was not his. Aaron was just helping fellow leather hobbyest out.
