Not sure if you call it a shooters bag or hunter's bag. Oh well, it's a bag. It's 9"x8"x3". Not sure what I'll do with it but it was fun to make and another learning process. My stitching and lacing still need alot of work. All things in time.

Well it's definetly a....manbag, that's for sure ;)

Looking great alltough my personal pref would be black lace but the contrast with natural will surely attract attention to it.

Nice touch with the stamped stitching grove and I always love it when cunning solutions is used instead of purchased hardware alltough that can be nice too.

What did you use for finish? It's very high gloss but doesn't look like the acrylic ones so much. Reminds me of the deck on an old wooden boat.

I used a Tandy's Antique stain "Dark Brown" and rubbed as much as I could off in the middle. Then I just finished it with Super Sheen and buffed the heck out of it. I like the deer antler clasp too. I had the antlers so at a friends suggestion I gave it a try and it turned out nice. Thank you for the compliments. I'm going to make another one Tom and I believe I will use a dark brown or black lace.

Oh really, I must try buffing more with the sheen sometime. Right now I'm giving a go with a beeswax based grease and get nothing out of it. I'm frustrated, should've sheened it.

Make sure you post that bag when it's done, I wanna see it.

Hello carr52.

Nice work. I think the light coloured lace really looks great against the darker leather.

Cheers.
