BWL Report post Posted November 23, 2009 Lately I have been following differant topics on the forum to find differant projects. At last .................. I thought I'd try making a pair of bracers. Tom was having fun with his project , just creating. Tom you have inspired me to step out the box. I started by buying a pattern pack from Tandy. I have a scrape side and I proceeded to cut out my pattern. Once cut I had a blank slate and on idea what to tool. So I just started to draw, and decided to create a Texas/Lone Star pattern for the Bracers. Below a start (just a Long Horn so far). Thanks Tom for the inspiration.
