Ty Pittman lives in central Virginia and  has a passion for creating and making. After being unsatisfied with construction work, his dad fostered creative and intuitive skills while introducing him to the craft. The family now makes farrier and riding chaps through their small business Buddy Aprons. Ty also works part time at the Richmond Tandy, where he teaches about leatherwork and shares knowledge with skilled leather workers every day. Leathercraft is a hobby with endless potential for those that can apply themselves and anyone creative enough will never run out of new and exciting projects
