  1. it appears the pattern maker named all of his patterns after nautical terms.
  2. your chisels only need to puncture the leather not the board so not very thick.
  3. A regular poly cutting board like you might have in the kitchen.
  4. i have a regular wallet. i cut out a piece the length of a dollar of foil doubled it and put in the long cash slot . my cards are inside of it when folded.
  5. jeez that is terrible I wish i had some helpful info!!! I hate thieves.
  6. one for every day of the week! those all look pretty nice.
  7. yea i 'm for multiple knife sheath. could even be for some kind of farming type work where you need knives for harvesting all day.
  8. LOL i think it has more to do with raising four daughters with pony tails.
  9. a very cool approach to the problem, that design rocks!!
  10. use a square piece of wood or flat on two sides put the leather tube on it like a sock and apply the glue to the sides and slide it into your quiver and apply pressure to set the glue on each side.
  11. make one tube out of very thin leather about 1/3 rd the size of the quiver then place it in the center and sew it at the top in two places equal distance from each side to create three equal spaces and at the bottom before sewing up the bottom. or maybe easier would be to glue it in and stitch the the top.
  12. I've got this idea. Take a button sew it on in the top center of your leather piece. then use a regular rubber hair tie and loop it around the button go around the braid then loop that end over the button again. it would fit any size braid. Or maybe two buttons one each where you placed the snap then use the rubber tie around both. Crap now I gotta make one! https://www.amazon.com/Goody-Womens-Elastic-Hair-Ties/dp/B005CSYUQA/ref=asc_df_B005CSYUQA?tag=bngsmtphsnus-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=80814222102129&hvnetw=s&hvqmt=e&hvbmt=be&hvdev=c&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=&hvtargid=pla-4584413749535816&th=1
  13. I actually figured the Mesozoic era but cretaceous is part of it. https://www.wsgs.wyo.gov/wyoming-geology/paleontology.aspx
  14. thank you I knew they were from the cretaceous period but i didn't know much more.
  15. here are a couple of fossil surface finds i picked up while metal detecting this summer i would love to know what they are. The two oval shaped pieces have a very thin iridescent shell. the other is just weird.
  16. “Can't you give me brains?" asked the Scarecrow. "You don't need them. You are learning something every day. A baby has brains, but it doesn't know much. Experience is the only thing that brings knowledge, and the longer you are on earth the more experience you are sure to get.”
  17. tooling letters is hard for one reason, everyone knows what a letter is supposed to look like so every little mistake is compounded by the human eyes and minds ability to understand the shape it is imagined to be. Practice is key to eliminating those little mistakes.
  18. Contrary to what we are taught, the lions share of human development and knowledge has come from the average person and his or her ability to observe. Science has had little positive influence in the whole scheme of life throughout the evolution of the human species.
  19. We call most stone tools arrow heads out of habit. This could very well have been used as a knife or a hafted as a spear there is as much speculation as there are facts about the origin and use of many of these stone tools unless as you say are found with some proof of their usage.. I have found about 50 probably over the years some as small as a finger nail and some as large as three inches. I've even tried to make a few they are so interesting thinking about the man whose work you can see. Each flake tells a story of his ability. some are really exquisite then others look as if a child made them which could very well have been.
  20. i also skive the edges a lot thinner now so the feathers look more real.
  21. i buy bamboo skewers from the grocery store and cut to length. Then brown them over a flame.
