Title: Birch Bark Quiver and Cloack Pin Buckle
Post by: bushman on February 07, 2013, 12:01:54 am

Here is a Birch Bark quiver I made. Thanks RobWiden for the bark, it turned out great. The buckle is a Scottish Cloack pin design. I made another one and placed it bellow that one you see in the pictures, I did that so I can adjust the length of the shoulder strap as needed.

Thanks for all the replies.
richardzane: The bottom is a scrap piece of 1/4 plywood that I cut to shape and then lightly glued it into the bottom opening of the quiver. I then drilled a bunch of small wholes all in a line around the base of the quiver and drove in some carpet tacks through the bark and into the middle of the plywood. I then cut out a piece of bark the same size as the bottom of the quiver and glued and tacked it into place as well. I will attach a couple of close up pictures of it.
