Members viejo Posted November 7, 2010 Members Report Posted November 7, 2010 I went into my local Tandy shop a while back, and found about 3 square feet of some really beautiful elkhide (it's almost pure white). I bought it because it looks so good and feels really nice, but I don't have a clue what to do with it. I thought about making a vest, but don't have enough of the hide. I need some ideas.

Contributing Member TwinOaks Posted November 7, 2010 Contributing Member Report Posted November 7, 2010 Trim pieces on a larger item; inlay/overlay pieces for wallets, etc. Heck, make a nice scenic carving of a mountain range, and inlay the white elk skin for the snow caps.
