Thanks for spending all the time to put the pictures back in these threads Ed. Sure hope we never lose them again. I just love looking at your leather and rawhide creations. I need to get better at these skills.

I don't know if it's skill or a battle of attrition leaving yourself something you are pleased with.I do know it's an effort or mentality of not being afraid to fail.Then after those failures a person gets the method ironed out to a nice result.
Hope your rawhide quiver you told me about gets shown in a bit.

Ed,
Is there a pattern available for that arm guard?  I'd like to try that with some tanned elk I have.

Enjoyed this thread.  Some outstanding work done.  I have two bear hides in the freezer from my bear and my sons bear that we shot last Sept. Not quite sure what I am going to do with them. Would like to get them tanned with the hair on to make some quivers for the grand kids.

Again, great work
