Canteen

Recommended Posts

Leather canteen with wooden cork and sealed with beeswax. Made for the winner of the inaugural Gaucho Derby in Argentina last March.

Tell us how you formed that please you did a darn good job, it resembles a shot pouch for black powder shotguns.

Hi, really neat work.  Can you provide measurements or post another picture with something to compare it to like maybe a coffee mug?

Thanks folks. The winner of the derby now has the canteen. I missed by 2 places or I'd still have it. I stuffed with popcorn kernels to expand. I gave up looking for my ruler after 15 minutes, the teenager probably took it. It was just over 6 inches across and probably grew a little during packing. The spout is the same width as the striker strip on a box of matches. I would double the size of the spout next time, I made it too tight. Wine cork wouldn't fit. .

6" across? That was bigger than I thought.  I'm sure the new owner loves it.
