Members vector Posted March 10, 2009 Members Report Posted March 10, 2009 Hi all, wow what a site. Amazing1 Im almost too humbled to get my leather stamps out now Its a long story with sad tones. I do way too many hobbies, when something is needed I work out how then just do it. Never brilliant but it does the job.However a very good old friend of mine passed away and left me his leather tools. Id only spoken about getting him to teach me some leather work a few months ago because Id taken up archery and needed quivers and armguards and the like. With him gone the opportunity to learn from him is also So now Im on my own with an old case of stamps and basic leather tools. While my immediate need is some quivers I have stalled my normal rush in and do it mentality to a more think and fiddle first. There is lots to learn. Quote
Contributing Member rdb Posted March 10, 2009 Contributing Member Report Posted March 10, 2009 Welcome! You'll probably learn more in a week, here on the forum, than any other method, so you've come to right place. Make sure you go over the quiver section here, and the getting started, you'll see all sorts of styles and methods. Don't forget to show us pictures of your projects as you gain steam. Don't be afraid to ask questions, we call this the best forum on the net for good reasons... Quote
