I may have posted this here when I finished it some time ago. Sorry about that, but this is about it coming back too visit this weekend with the owner. I’ve been making a few things here and there and no matter how long I’ve been doing this, I never ever get bored or tired of the craft Because of stuff like this. Old dude was out and about early on a beautiful Sunday grinning ear to ear and retelling all compliments he had gotten at the gun show. It’s so cool to know people think you have some magical power and consider something you made a valuable possession. When I’m long gone from here, I’ll have done my job and left people wondering… who in the heck made this….

Don’t have the phone# handy, but check out the fb group snapping turtle leather company group. Contact info is there. You’ll speak with either Scott or Jill. Tell’em Gary sent ya. They’re proud of it, no doubt, but it all comes back in the end.

I'm having a problem with the snapping turtle guy.

I ordered a Buckskin hide, he sent me a green hide. I emailed and he said he'd make it right but now I haven't heard from him in 4 days. No refund and no new hide on the way like he said he'd do.. I'll wait another day to see if he responds then neg review

He’ll get it right bro, so far the only gripe I have is not throwing me a bone, a scrap, anything. Don’t want something for nothing, but I’ve spent a lot of funds with them, and sent A LOT of business their way. They use my work at the shows, along with others, which is way cool. At least let me stay awake late on a week night. Ha! He’ll get you right. I have heard that they were out of the extra jumbo tails and waiting for a big enough load to ship to the tannery. Have you tried the crust? Only way to go for me. I always get crust in everything if available.

That is just phenomenal.  I know it's way beyond anything I could ever hope to achieve.
