Well here is the finished vest that I made doing the turorial on vest making. Take 1/2 a cow, 1 pig. some nylon mesh, and a bit of glue. Punch 2040 holes on the leather, dab some glue here and there, and run 530 feet of lace through all those holes 2 times, and this is what you come out with.

The people of this site are incredible. Ken has been with us pretty much from the start, and is one of our Ambassadors. In addition to doing outstanding leatherwork and teaching and writing great unselfish lessons, he also welcomes new members to LW and helps folks find their way around our site. Can we get a round of applause for Beaverslayer? Thanks for sharing and caring, Ken. We're all glad you are here.

Such a great tutorials that I added it to my list of things to try to make while you were still in the process of posting it. Now that it is done it has quickly moved up my list to be something to do sooner. That is right after all my show and fair projects already in the process. Thanks again for sharing.
