Thanks Chuck, hang in there you'll get it.I'm pretty new at leather work, I started last July. I timmed my self on this last one, it took me just over 10 hours from start to finish. Making the checkers and stiching is what took me so long. Lol.  The checkers is two 5 to 6 oz pieces glued together.

Well here it is a bit over my skill level, I kinda bit off more than I could chew I have more imagination than skill. I guess that's how you learn new stuff lol. A ton of mistakes but it looks good at five feet or so. The checkers are deer and elk antler.
