Accessorizing the cast iron pan with leather Login/Join

I was wanting another handle cover for a cast iron pan.

At the local gun show there's a table with some leather left overs.

So I bought this:


And made one:


The top one by Lodge is sewn and laced.
Since I have no way to sow leather, I placed the lacing holes closer together. The leather I used is also thicker than the lodge. I'm pretty happy with the results. I have enough leather to make two more.

Yours looks nicer with the tighter lacing.


"It did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather what life expected from us. We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life – daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual." Viktor Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning, 1946.

Nice. I wonder how they hold up with the heat over time? I'd imagine you'd oil it occasionally yo keep it from drying out.

I've had the Lodge one for a year or so. I don't leave it on the pan the whole time. Just slip it on when I need to drain grease or hold the pan for a moment. Haven't applied anything to it. So far, I haven't noticed any changes.

It has a 3/16-1/4" white liner for heat protection. You can see white, if you look at the lace holes.

I added a slip in, leather liner to mine. I will have to see how well it does controlling the heat.
