just wow i guess....once again! just wow! -
Ordered a hide and i cant use it for tooling since it has been oiled. Is there anything i can do to it, to make it suitable for tooling again????

I have some oil tanned/dyed. I'll experiement and see if I have a solution for you... might mean you'll have to buy a new bunch of tools though.
-
thank you sylvia! i wonder if they ll cost more than a new hide
-
Might pyrography work? Maybe you can burn decorations on. Will be stinky, this is an 'outside method', and a respirator might be a good idea too.

well to be honest i also like another fastening method more than the straps. If you see the other ones i made in this album, you ll see that i used elastic bands to make them fasten. I use them every day and they work fine. They dont slide down. But for this one i thought it would look better with straps. I did try it on and it stayed in place. Maybe its cause i didnt make the back of it too smooth? Or maybe you should just tighten the arm guard a bit more. -

Hey chancey! Thank you for the compliment. I guess i should try doing that. I just thought it wasnt really ''selling material''. I get started on changing the names. -
and may i add .....archaeology???!!! cool!!!!! -
i am sorry i didnt use a pattern for them. it was my very first leather project and i just went along step by step. I would be happy to make you a pattern though. i can measure and trace the parts if you want. Keep in mind though that these are quivers for lefties. Let me know if you are right handed so that i flip everything around. Also the 2 quivers are very different. The one on this picture is smaller and lighter, where the other one has more space and pockets. Let me know which one you are interested in.

That just hurt thinking about that. Good thing I wear gloves when I work with stuff - too many nicks and cuts to want to feel that.
-
come on guys! dont be so whiny!
there hardly is any pain if lemon juice gets in a cut. -
It reminded me of when I used to work in a box plant and got all kinds of paper cuts. We used to use this liquid bandage stuff - OUCH!!!!
-
hahahaaha as the title says, they are quivers. So basically i ''bag'' to hold your arrows. I made them for archery....they are the ones that get attached around the waist. They look very different from the ones that go on your back.

thank you! lol leatherworm! I am trying now to tool a piece of hide to make it look like dragon skin, maybe i can add that up to the story -
Thank you guys! Cyber, the webbing strap was glued and stitched to the main leather strap first. Then stitched over again when i added the black leather pieces. -
