I like your work. I also am a longbow archer. And like yourself I make quite a bit of archery equipment. Some is modern and some is medieval based. I just finished a 14th century bolt quiver to match my medieval crossbow. Next is to replace my old Hastings quiver with a new one. It never ends does it?

I like your use of color.

Diapers and Politicians should be changed often...

Both for the same reason!

Wow, I'm super in love with your work!

I've just started tooling leather, maybe a month ago... I want to give a go at a bigger project and being an avid outdoorsmen and bowhunter, I've decided to make a quiver. I don't shoot traditional yet but for now I wouldn't mind making one for my compund. I'm doin all my research on it now as far as the "mold" of the quiver and how I may want it designed. I was curious did you just start from scratch on getting the shape of your quiver or did you learn off a source (book,Internet, magizine, etc...)? Just curious where I should start, any pointers are GREATLY appreciated.

Thanks

god bless

Hey, thanks for the feedback. Modern or "traditional" - doesn't matter, it's all fun! To answer your questions, I came up with my own pattern, based on similar ones that I've seen before. I did a bit of a build-along for this quiver on another website that might help you out with some ideas. here's a link to it: http://www.primitive...ic,25363.0.html

Since making that one, I've tried my hand at making and using a quiver similar to those used by the Plains Indians, and it has become my favorite type of quiver to date. That one can be seen here: http://www.primitive...ic,32010.0.html

If you need any specific answers I'll do what I can to help :)
