Members freezerfiller Posted February 15, 2014 Members Report Posted February 15, 2014 Hello, I just signed up. I drew a tag for an alligator last year after 5 years of getting rejected, and with an incredible amount of beginners luck, I fell a couple of inches shy of the state record! Needless to say I have quite a bit of beautiful chocolate tanned alligator hide that I can't wait to make into some goods for me and my family. My plan is to start simple with some less expensive leather, and hopefully with your help and support from the forum, build the skills and courage to cut up that gorgeous hide and make some nice goods. From what I've read so far, it seems like I've found the right place! Quote
