That looks very nice, seabass. You catch on pretty quick!  ;)  I've been using the heavy(70#) art. sinew with my leatherwork and really like it.

Nice job, SB! I picked up a few tools, yesterday, myself, and hope to get that good one day!

Yeah! I like it too. I've only made a couple plains style with elk hide but would like to find some heavier leather for one like yours. Good work.
I found many years ago that it is much easier and more rewarding working with those that don't know anything than those that know it all.

thanks Kenny and Fred.fred i got the leather at tandy.it is kind of expensive,but i am a gold member and get a little discount.the piece i used for this quiver was off a cow side and still had the brand from the ranch on it.i was going in with just an idea of how i wanted it to look.i didn't have a pattern.you can get archery related patterns from tandy.that cow side was 9 ounce veggie tanned leather.it was 167.00 dollars,but i got the whole side for 67 dollars on sale.still have a ton of it left.i only buy when i can get a deal.i'm poor.
