SplinterLink

A couple of days out at the Ren Faire in Texas, no problems. The whole thing is slightly more flexible than some water boiled leather and oven hardened experiments I've tried. I still wouldn't leave in the car in the summer...

I've made a formed cuirass for my sister, we did a plaster negative, then a fiberglass positive to form the leather over. You can check out our tutorial http://www.embercostumes.com/susanscuirass.html And yes, it was a lot of work even before starting the leather.

Long time lurker, first time posting. Here are some bracers I made for my LARP costume. I've been doing leather work for about a year or two, and these seem to be everyone's favorite item that I've made so far. Sorry about the bad glare on the second pic.
