Members tclaridge Posted December 16, 2015 Report Thanks! It was a fun project, maybe I'll make some more someday. Quote
Members Jc83 Posted December 18, 2015 Report This looks amazing! Did you put anything inside the handle? Quote
Members tclaridge Posted December 18, 2015 Report Thanks! No, the handle is just two layers of 8 oz leather folded over, glued, and then stitched. After wet molding around the glass and to create the handle shape I "crisped" it in a very low heat oven, which seems to give it some rigidity. Enough for its intended purpose, anyway! . Making the pattern took some time-- I used 1/8" foam to experiment quite a bit before it came out right. Merry Christmas! Quote
Members Ulfberht Leather Works Posted December 18, 2015 Report Well done. I particularly like the single piece design idea. Quote
