Sheilajeanne Report post Posted July 4, 2022 (edited) Us archery folk would call those bracers! Nice work! Edited July 4, 2022 by Sheilajeanne Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fredk Report post Posted July 4, 2022 Nice work, especially on the 'Dragon Scales'. Anything like that is not easy to keep aligned. I think I saw these, or something like them. before as I then went and bought the 'Dragon Scale' stamp Not much difference between 'Cowboy Cuffs' and Archery Bracers The only difference I would do is make those straps of a thinner leather and skive both ends of them as well Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hags Report post Posted July 4, 2022 Welders like them as well. They just need to overlap so the hot stuff doesn't get inside. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We have several extremely large engineering companies here, The welders usually wear large leather gauntlet type gloves with a gauntlet cuff that goes up to their elbow Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Frodo Report post Posted July 5, 2022 Picture this My boss was about 6'8'' Big ole country boy, his hands were as big as a dinner plate I was at the jack stand cutting holes with a torch in 4'' angle iron for 1/2'' all thread to go through.Boss walks up and is standing there, He takes a wad of red man and shoves it in his mouth. I look down and he is standing on the cherry i just cut out. Smoke is boiling up from under his boot. I said Hey Boss. you might want to spit that chew out on your boot. He looked down and did a one legged diddy dance DAD DMANIT ! I JUST BOUGHT THEM DAD DAMN BOOTS Next time do not bird dawg the welder BOSS Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hags Report post Posted July 7, 2022 I like that! Most of the time it's just too dang hot for all the jackets and stuff. I was a welder in Texas, we just wore long sleeve wrangler denim shirts with heavy starch. A cuff that went under your elbow for passing would have been great. I put a knee pad under mine if I had to learn on it for a while. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
