Title: turned my first Buckskin into something
Post by: paulsemp on January 20, 2018, 04:22:46 pm

 I finally turn my first Buckskin into something a few weeks back. Simple side quiver with a dog wood shoot to stiffen it. Little Possible's pouch with an antler button. beaver fur wrapping the top. stitch together with artificial sinew. comfortably fit six arrows. Thanks for looking

Nice! I don't even own a quiver but that is sweet. Nice and simple, form following function.

I like seeing useful stuff made from self tanned leather with those useful touches put to it too.I'm sure it's light as a feather to carry.Should last a lifetime and just get better looking as it gets older.

Paulsemp, really nice, I like the simplicity and clean look and usefulness of your gear, I remember cutting my first pc of braintan leather, scared I would screw up all my hard work. Like Ed said will last a lifetime and just keep getting better. Bob

Real nice work. Paulsemp.  It is a great feeling making something from hide start to to finished item!  Hopefully, you never have to turn it into a wall hanger, or you use it so much you both wear out together!

 Is pretty cool to turn a hide into this from start to finish. Something about brain tan leather that is just above and beyond anything else. light as a feather is right my arrows weigh more than the quiver

For summer shooting  in the hot hot weather though I had to go to a woven material for a carrying strap as the brain tan will stretch a bit when it gets too wet from sweat.
