Members Brazos Jack Posted April 12, 2013 Members Report Posted April 12, 2013 (edited) Here is a gift for all y'all! This is a pattern set for Pommel Bags from the mid 1800"s I made some time back. For anyone who has a copy of Packing Iron, you may recognize these cuz that is what inspired the pattern. Remember: when you have these printed tell them to set the Page Scaling to NONE! Enjoy and show off them pictures! Jim Pommel Bag Instructions.pdf Pommel Bag Patterns.pdf Pommel Bag Carving Patterns.pdf Edited April 12, 2013 by Brazos Jack Quote Jim R.

Members mcn Posted April 13, 2013 Members Report Posted April 13, 2013 Those are great patterns. Thanks I can just imagine how much work that went in to that. Quote
Members Brazos Jack Posted April 13, 2013 Author Members Report Posted April 13, 2013 It was a labor of love, I'll tell you that - mostly because I said to myself "Self, I'd love to make one of those!" I made the one in the photo in 1998 and displaed them at various shows until one day in Illinois a fellow came in the tent and said "I want THAT!" Didn't ask the price and didn't care. He was decorating his office in Old West decor and said it was the perfect item to have. The patterns which were made on beer carton and cereal box sat in a box with many others until I decided to put it on paper and get it where it would the most good - in the hand of folks like you! It's just one of many unpublished patterns that I intend to post here for download. So keep an eye out folks, there's more where these came from! Enjoy! Jim Quote Jim R. Simmons Etowah River Leather

Members mrdabeetle Posted May 6, 2013 Members Report Posted May 6, 2013 That is cool! Thanks for sharing! I don't do western stuff often, but the assorted strap billet designs will be cool to use on other projects. Quote
