TomSwede Posted February 27, 2009 Report Posted February 27, 2009 I think it was DCKnives who posted a pattern for this one so thanks for that. I used this design to have something to go by to learn how to make them from two different leathers. This one is basically a functional prototype so didn't put too much energy into it but made a simple celtic eagle carving anyways.

Also gives a good surface to carve and tool. Tom Quote Confucius - Better a diamond with a flaw than a pebble without. --------------------------------------------- www.1eye1.se blogg.1eye1.se

If you still have this pattern, would you mind sharing it with me? Thanks! Quote
