Introductions

topic posted Wed, November 7, 2007 - 6:04 AM by  Jason
Please allow me to introduce myself, I'm a man of wealth and taste. I've been around for a long, long .....

...wait....that's not right. That's the Rolling Stones! To begin with, people have frequently commented on my lack of taste (or as the polite ones say, my unique tastes) and I am FAR from being wealthy. Anyway, I do leather working as a hobby and I've been going about it for about 6 years now. My current pet projects are cuirboli and bracers. I got into leatherworking as a means of making leather objects that I couldn't afford to purchase outright. Of course there were some pretty ugly knife sheaths in the begining, but eventually they started looking nice enough to sell. Recently I've made everything from knife sheaths to custom leather carving, to a pair of sporrans for a local band.

Anyway, here I am! Hopefully I can be of assistance for someone here and, in turn, hopefully I can get some feedback from everyone else!

    The perforations on my blue card are still sharp!
    I've been hit exactly twice with a stick so far.
    I actually have a couple pieces of armor though I need some adjustments
    The laundry list is still kinda long...
    gorget, arms, chest/back boots, a sword and shield is probably a good idea, unless I won't to be one of those extras who is always running away from his eventual and frightful death!
