Use them for a disk lock holder. Many many thanks to DunnSpeed who did all the leather work. Excellent quality...couldn't ask for better

I really like the mounting location. It just kind of fits in that spot.
I think it's a neat idea!

The tooling was made from my dad's WWII patch. He flew a B-17 and was in the 15th Air Force. I have been talking to Chris about doing a seat with the nose art from my dad's plane on it.
