Chief31794 Posted October 6, 2014 Report Posted October 6, 2014 (edited) Orders for Rifle Slings are picking up, I guess hunting season is kicking up some interest. Anyway, here's some of what we put out this week. Chief Edited October 6, 2014 by Chief31794 Quote "Life's too short to carry ugly leather"

Members Rohn Posted October 7, 2014 Members Report Posted October 7, 2014 Real nice work Chief. I really like your rifle slings. Looks like they are antiqued. What finish do you use on them? Quote Rohn(John 8:32) And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. (KJV)
Chief31794 Posted October 8, 2014 Author Report Posted October 8, 2014 Real nice work Chief. I really like your rifle slings. Looks like they are antiqued. What finish do you use on them? Rohn, Thanks, they are antiqued, two are Saddle Tan and one is Light Brown. I finish just about everything with ClearLac, I started using it when it was called Neatlac and it is my goto finish. I use Aussie on some items, and Mop and Glo on the Black Items, I don't use Clearlac on black, I like the Mop and Glo look on that. Chief Quote "Life's too short to carry ugly leather"
Members HollyNelson Posted October 8, 2014 Members Report Posted October 8, 2014 What sort of leather is that on the fourth item? Actually, the fifth too. Love the tooling on the next-to-last photo. Quote
Members papaw Posted October 8, 2014 Members Report Posted October 8, 2014 Chief great work as always love the lace, and the coloring is super. I do want to ask about the USMC emblem is that craved? Quote Papaw Indiana Calumet Area Leather Guild Happy to be old enough to know better, but young enough to still do it !!

Thanks, the 4th item is genuine ostrich, the 3d and 5th are Embossed Cowhide (Leather). Thanks I still like the western floral type carvings but they don't sell well anymore, I actually sell more plain wallets than anything. Chief great work as always love the lace, and the coloring is super. I do want to ask about the USMC emblem is that craved? Papaw, Thanks, the USMC emblem is an old, old Tandy Stamp (back when they made good stuff), I wish I could find the whole set, I have the new set they make and won't use them, the EGA is the only one of the old ones.

So, I am guessing its not leg ostrich, but body-ostrich? I've seen leg ostrich and that's quite different. Quote

Members MonicaJacobson Posted October 8, 2014 Members Report Posted October 8, 2014 Very nice! I really like those rifle slings. While I like the sheridan carving (in fact, it's growing on me more and more), I really like the look of the one with the Marine Core stamp.
