jok 3,035 Posted December 9, 2021 Report Share Posted December 9, 2021 Just read probably the entire thread and am mightily impressed. Quality cannot be suppressed. Now one guy is on about getting back into a bit of leather work but wants to make a game bag which necessitates lighter grade material. Out of interest, how difficult is it for you guys to obtain ? I ask because I might know of a right big collection of hides in a variety of finished colours which some years ago were used to make snooker cue cases. If it is of any interest I could always ask the question. No promises. Jok. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I set about making a game bag some time ago, drew up a card template, and got the basics done, have to get back to it when time allows, this is in thin grade full grain shoulder 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jeemes 3,491 Posted January 8, 2022 Report Share Posted January 8, 2022 Black bridle split down to 1.5mm with a Pigskin lining for comfort. I used the old buckle. Hopefully the hand stitching should last longer than the machine stitching on the original strap. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
