Members LederRudi Posted May 23, 2018 Members Report Posted May 23, 2018 Just finished the quiver I started to make a while ago. First I finished the edge then cut it open where the straps that hold the D-rings had to be fed in. I combined the piece with a matching belt which I’ve made some years ago and that I’d forgotten about. Everything is sewn by Hand. Comments welcome.

Members Stetson912 Posted May 24, 2018 Members Report Posted May 24, 2018 Very nice. That's a lot of stamping. Hand stitched? Ignore my question... It pays to read haha! Quote
Members LederRudi Posted May 25, 2018 Author Members Report Posted May 25, 2018 ...And that much stamping and stitching paid as well (even if in rather volatile currency): I got plenty of OOOHs and AAAhs from fellow archers (who don't know much about leatherwork, I have to admit). Thanks for commenting, Stetson! Quote "If you work for a living, why do you kill yourself working?" Tuco Ramírez
Members bullmoosepaddles Posted May 25, 2018 Members Report Posted May 25, 2018 Beautiful work Sir. Pride in your work is obvious. Thank you for sharing. An aside comment. Love the book case. Quote
bikermutt07 Posted May 25, 2018 Report Posted May 25, 2018 This like all of your pieces is amazing. Quote I'm not paying 80 bucks for a belt!!! It's a strip of leather. How hard could it be? 4 years and 3 grand later.... I have a belt I can finally live with. Stitching is like gravy, it's only great if you make it every day. From Texas but in Bossier City, Louisiana.
Members battlemunky Posted May 26, 2018 Members Report Posted May 26, 2018 My hand is cramped in empathy. It looks awesome though. I like the scales and then the stamping with the camoflager in each scale. Damn classy! Edges look great too. There is too much to love with this piece! Quote
Members noobleather Posted May 26, 2018 Members Report Posted May 26, 2018 Top quality work there.Stamping and sewing is awesome! Quote
Members LederRudi Posted May 26, 2018 Author Members Report Posted May 26, 2018 Thank you for the nice comments Bullmoosepaddles, Bikermutt, Battlemunky and Noobleather! Forgive me for responding only now! My children kept me rather busy presenting me with a wood carving course ... a nice new experience!

Members Fire88 Posted June 24, 2018 Members Report Posted June 24, 2018 Very nice work, my hands ache for you. Quote
Members LederRudi Posted June 24, 2018 Author Members Report Posted June 24, 2018 Thank you, Fire88. A fellow archer practically pried the set out of my hands. That flatters the amateur leather crafter and justifies the tedious work. Quote "If you work for a living, why do you kill yourself working?" Tuco Ramírez
