I loved the tutorial, as I’m just getting into leatherworking. I’ve learned a lot of tips and tricks to make this process easier. Thank you.
I think that this is a great tutorial for the beginner. The content and patterns are easy to follow. I like that you describe the tools and and techniques used. The tidbits, such as, tapping down the bacon edges are a nice touch so that the pieces have some flare to them. Thank you again. It was enjoyable.
Loved making this armor I get lots of compliments at faire season
Good first build. Still working on it. Picture to come.
