Thanks Cloud,
I was wondering if the distribution of
weight and balance would do the job.

Nice work and nice engineering Cloud. Back quivers were always a problem for me because gravity has too much affects on them. This one should alleviate those problems.

Nice quiver, very well made

, the harnessing looks very stabilizing and comfortable. Tidy.

I am very impressed with the design and workman ship. Would like to have that pattern. Back quivers usually are a pain for riding a horse into the mountains, but that one would be perfect. Joe

The main body is just made of square pieces, very simple. The straps are what got tricky. I could pm you some rough dimensions later, when I get home.

Cloud: I would like to make a trade for the shoulder and strap patterns. I have elk horns if they can be shipped in pieces I could UPS! Joe

Like actual leather pieces?

Cloud: No I do a lot of leather work and some of my projects I have made a foldable plastic template for a pattern. I try to use a plastic material that I can trace around and fold up to put out of the way when not in use! Even a paper grocery bag would work. Thanks for considering helping me out! Joe

I need to make templates anyway. Soon as I do, I'll hook you up.

Super quiver I'll call that one Cloudfeather!!!!!!!.Expert work!!!!!.That one should stay high and tight to your back no matter what you do.One thing though in the summertime with sweating and all I hope your leather is sealed good.Otherwise the dye could stain up your tee shirt a bit.

Thanks, Beadman. I sealed it with a wax paste I made from beeswax, linseed oil and turpentine. Rubbed in and heat gunned. She's waterproof.
